lxc in nova will happily attempt to run x86_64 container on i686 arch

nova-compute.log shows an error like:
2011-08-25 04:47:53,889 ERROR nova.compute.manager [-] Instance '2' failed to spawn. Is virtualization enabled in the BIOS? Details: [Errno 2] No such file or directory

I realize this isn't that big of a deal, but I just lost a bunch of time trouble shooting it it and I should be sleeping.

Chuck submitted a merge proposal for fixing this at https://review.openstack.org/#change,891 .

[Tom Fifield (fifieldt)]

The merge proposal failed... is this bug still valid?
