This is mighty strange, and something I haven't seen before. With a recent cookbook, node[:virtualization][:system] as reported by ohai is coming up as 'lxc' on AWS EC2 instances when the chef-client first runs. It should be 'xen'.

However, when chef runs again, it returns 'xen', and every attempt I've made to look at it with ohai (even before the chef client starts) shows 'xen'.

What's up with that?
