stderr actually is mapped to a pty. The problem seems to be that getty can't set /dev/console as its controlling terminal because it's already the controlling tty for init, which is in a different process group. Thus getty ends up with no controlling tty, this is inherited by bash, and thus bash cannot set up job control.

Logging in gives you -bash: no job control in this shell and hitting ctrl-c reboots the container. Consoles from 'lxc-console -n $container' behave correctly. This may be a kernel issue, as discussed here: http://lists.linuxcontainers.org/pipermail/lxc- devel/2013-October/005843.html so also marking this as affecting the kernel. This can be worked around, but really needs to be fixed before trusty is frozen.
