It should work, we have forward-ported all the features required by 
newer distros.

More to say, latest vzctl (since 3.0.25) sets this on a per-CT basis, 
using the table from
/etc/vz/osrelease.conf. If you run vzctl-3.0.25 or later, just add the 
following line to this
file:

debian-6.0    2.6.32

I will fix it in vzctl-3.0.26.3 soon.
