This patch is a bit crude but does the job: using it I built a container and it 
works, though the arch is reported quirkily ;)
sudo arch=i386 lxc-create -n lucid-test-lp -t lucid-lp -f /etc/lxc/local.conf
sudo lxc-start -n lucid-test-lp
root@lucid-test-lp:~# arch
x86_64
root@lucid-test-lp:~# dpkg --print-architecture
i386


** Attachment added: "support exporting $arch to set an architecture."
