I tracked the issue down to the following point:

Networking works only for native containers with my usual local setup
made up of a bridge configured in /etc/network/interfaces, dnsmasq
listing on that bridge and arno-iptables-firewall doing the
masquerading and forwarding.

Networking works for native and armhf containers with using lxc-net and
my firewall disabled.

Networking fails for native and armhf containers with using lxc-net and
my firewall enabled.

So my questions are:

What's the difference between using lcx-net alone and my home-grown
setup (which works perfectly well also for qemu and virtualbox VMs)
with regards to non-native containers?

Does lxc-net anything specific regarding a containers architecture?

Should this be a bug against lxc then?

validiation properly, so the mail server for debian.org refuses my
mails. Luckily they are accepted at bugs.debian.org.
