You get a copy of the original mounts namespace.  However the host won't
see mount activity done in the container (unless you play games with
mounts propagation).

If after

        lxc-execute -n foo /bin/bash

you do

        mount --bind /proc /mnt

then from a terminal on the host you won't see /proc under /mnt.
