Hmm. Is UTSNAME supposed to be defined on entry to the template?
It isn't here, leading to /etc/sysconfig/network and
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
containing bad
HOSTNAME=
lines. (The fedora template has same problem.)
I worked around this with:

The next problem is a bug in lxc-start-ephemeral, which complains
sed: can't read
/var/lib/lxc/demo_centos6-temp-j4G0FcH/rootfs/etc/hostname: No such

The error comes from the line
