I think the command line is not right. Fuse uses at the /proc directory 
when initializating, so that have to be done in two steps:

Can you try:

lxc-execute -n foo /bin/bash

(from the shell in the container):
procfs -o direct_io /tmp/<tmpdir>
mount --bind /tmp/<tmpdir> /proc
echo 268435456 > /cgroup/foo/memory.memsw.limit_in_bytes
echo 268435456 > /cgroup/foo/memory.limit_in_bytes

* before exiting the container:
umount /proc
fusermount -u /tmp/<tmpfile>

If you do 'ls /proc', you should see everything expect the /proc/sys 
directory.
If you do 'cat /proc/meminfo', you should see:
MemTotal: 262144 kB
MemFree: 250684 kB
SwapTotal: 262144 kB
SwapFree: 0 kB
