I did my last test with gentoo as a lxc container around 2015-12 which failed with the entitled message.
Today I did a new test - and HOORAY it worked (nearly) out of the box! I built the template on a physical arch-Linux as described in https://github.com/globalcitizen/lxc-gentoo which took only few minutes.

Very very very good! YMMD!
