Could you please update the description to read exactly as it should? Both 3 and 4 have 127.0.1.1 <hostname>; I can't tell whether <hostname> is what you inserted to mask your actual hostname, or whether the bug is that your /etc/hosts actualy has "<hostname>" in it verbatim.

This would help software that expects the hostname be resolvable work inside lxc containers.
