This introduces a different problem: process creation time is counted as offset from btime:

(22) starttime %llu
          The time the process started after system boot. In
          kernels before Linux 2.6, this value was expressed
          in jiffies. Since Linux 2.6, the value is expressed
          in clock ticks (divide by sysconf(_SC_CLK_TCK)).

(http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man5/proc.5.html)

This means that because starttime is not virtualized, all the processes within the LXC container appear as time travellers from the future.
