Thanks for the hint!
The curl that actually did the job:
curl -v -u user:pwd -XPOST -H 'Content-type: text/xml' -d
"<layerGroup><name>2008</name><mode>CONTAINER</mode><title>2008</title><workspace><name>icecap</name></workspace><publishables><published
type='layerGroup'><name>icecap:200801</name></published></publishables><bounds><minx>-4000000</minx><maxx>4000000</maxx><miny>-4000000</miny><maxy>4000000</maxy><crs
class='projected'>EPSG:3411</crs></bounds></layerGroup>"
http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/layergroups
Strange enough (for me) that this is completely different from the "normal"
not-nested-layergroup creation.
Thanks again,
Csaba
