I'm not sure why you're not finding it, but you can just

        git clone git://github.com/lxc/lxc
        cd lxc
        sh autogen.sh
        ./configure --prefix=/usr
        make -j4
        sudo cp src/lxc/init.lxc /usr/sbin/

Now I'm not sure what lxc version you're on, but you should be safe if
you just copy /usr/sbin/init.lxc to /sbin/lxc-init and
/usr/lib/lxc/lxc-init.  Check the libraries it linked again (ldd
/usr/sbin/init.lxc) and make sure all the directories will be
bind-mounted from the host into the container.

If it still says it fails to find lxc-init, it could be because of
a missing library, but also try

        lxc-start -n container -l trace -o outfile

and look through outfile to see which filenames lxc tried to execute
lxc-init as, then copy init.lxc there.
