I'm not feeling as much pressure to fix this at the moment, since I have a
workaround in place (ucarp running on a pair of promox/lxc containers on 2
different hosts) but ultimately I want to move this to openvz containers,
as in my experience they have been bulletproof, running literally for
years. In contrast, I've seen lxc containers mysteriously become corrupted
and inoperative, and even since standing up the proxmox boxes, I've seen
lxc containers suddenly unable to accept ssh connections, and need to be
restarted.
