Above log is from an Eoan run. Here is Bionic:

This might be caused by changes to busybox since this looks like it's testing liblxc-3.0.4. In any case, I believe that the following commit in the stable-3.0 tree would fix it:
https://github.com/lxc/lxc/commit/3daa49d845b153dfb2012b61dba763cbc6e11374
