Thanks for pointing this out.  I don't believe it would be a serious
loss of functionality to chmod 0700 /var/lib/lxc.  I also don't feel
that this is a high priority bug since, so far, we do not recommend
allowing unprivileged users to use containers.  So I think a regular
update in trusty with SRUs to all previous releases is ok.
