Ah.  I am on amd64, and that is an i386 package without source.

Anyway, I grabbed the source, manually applied the patch and downgraded
the vzctl package to 3.0.22-14 from sid.

I then went to reproduce the problem and couldn't: 3.0.22-14 worked fine
for me after downgrading, without any additional patches at all.

Um, all of which leaves me a bit mystified, but the upgrade to 3.0.23,
then back down to 3.0.22 did replace all the distribution configuration
files, etc...


In any case I can no longer reproduce the fault with 3.0.22-14 from sid,
so I can only presume that there was something very strange went wrong
on my local system, but that the issue is now resolved.


Thank you both for your help, and I am sorry for the trouble.

        Daniel
