Sounds like a compilation/packaging problem. It works for me
here, with ubuntu raring:
cat > lxc.conf << EOF
lxc.utsname = beta
lxc.network.type = empty
lxc.rootfs = /
lxc.aa_profile = unconfined
EOF
sudo lxc-execute -n foobar -f lxc.conf -l info -o outout -- ps -ef
UID PID PPID C STIME TTY TIME CMD
root 1 0 0 08:46 pts/1 00:00:00
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/lxc/lxc-init -- ps -ef
root 2 1 0 08:46 pts/1 00:00:00 ps -ef
(an interactive shell doesn't work - just hangs, I don't use
lxc-execute so always forget what is expect to work and what
isn't)

Take a look at src/lxc/execute.c:choose_init(). It will look for
lxc-init in three places:
LXCINITDIR "/lxc/lxc-init"
/usr/lib/lxc/lxc-init
/sbin/lxc-init
LXCINITDIR in ubuntu is /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu, and lxc-init is in
fact at /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/lxc/lxc-init. (You can find your
LXCINITDIR in config.log if you built your own lxc). But the
easier thing might be to just copy lxc-init into /sbin.
