The OpenVZ Project hasn't released any OS Templates with those issues to the 
best of my knowledge.  If someone is claiming otherwise, I'd love to hear about 
it.

I believe there are a large number of hosting providers that use OpenVZ... that 
use OS Templates that they have come up with themselves and offer to their 
customers.  I imagine that might be where the these issues lie but I'm only 
guessing.

A project named Proxmox VE integrated OpenVZ (along with KVM) for 8-9 years but 
with their most recent release they have switched to LXC.  The reason I bring 
them up is because they also offered their own OS Templates as well as 
"application templates"... and would be the primary OS Template provider for 
Proxmox VE users.

Again, to the best of my knowledge, the OpenVZ project has only ever offered OS 
Templates that were 99.9% stock distro packages... with the remaining 0.01% an 
OpenVZ provided package that typically did some minor config change to make the 
container start up with less resource requirements.

TYL,
