It means if the user manually chmods /var/lib/lxc to 755, we don't
change it again after this. (Except, see below)

The test for package version will be kept until at least after
14.04. Since the trusty lxc version checks for the
1.0.0~alpha2-0ubuntu5 versio, an lts-to-lts upgrade will get
this check. Which sort of belies my statement that user
choices will be respected.
