No, I just finally found it a little while ago - it comes from a
change in /etc/network/if-up.d/upstart, which now says:

if [ "$IFACE" = lo ]; then
        exit 0 # emission handled by /etc/init/network-interface.conf
fi

and didn't use to.

When you get net-device-added, then /etc/init/network-interface.conf
runs, and for lo it manually emits a signal.

But in a container, we never get net-device-up events, so
/etc/init/network-interface.conf doesn't run.  Instead our interfaces
come up through /etc/init/networking.conf, which does 'ifup -a'.

I'm playing with upstart scripts to fix this.  I'm hoping upstart
will accept a patch letting me pass a "--emit lxc" argument to
init.  Then we can have /etc/init/lxc.conf *always*installed*,
which has

        start on lxc

So if we run on bare metal, it wont' run, but if it runs in a
container, it does, and it can emit events like
        net-device-added IFACE=lo
which otherwise don't happen in a container.
