Raring armv7l
lxc: 0.9.0~rc1-0ubuntu1
flash-kernel: 3.0~rc.4ubuntu29
initramfs-tools: 0.103ubuntu0.7


When the kernel is upgraded inside an armhf LXC container running on armv7l, the upgrade fails with:
===
Setting up initramfs-tools (0.103ubuntu0.7) ...
update-initramfs: deferring update (trigger activated)
Processing triggers for initramfs-tools ...
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-3.8.0-14-generic
flash-kernel: installing version 3.8.0-14-generic

dpkg: error processing initramfs-tools (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

TEST CASE:
1. Install an armhf container on an arm host
2. Upgrade initramfs-tools
