There is the lxc tools at:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/lxc/

In these tools there is the lxc-unshare allowing you to do the same.
    lxc-unshare -n /bin/bash

If you find some problems with it, feel free to ask :)
I will release a new lxc-0.5.1, version fixing a few bugs very soon.

The sysfs patchset has been rejected and the sysfs itself should be 
reworked before submitting the sysfs per namespace. This is a long work, 
Eric can probably say more on that.
In the meantime, a patch to make netns and sysfs to co-exist has been 
pushed upstream, so we can create a network namespace without sysfs 
virtualization. This modification will be available for 2.6.29. Until 
this version is released, you can use the netdev development tree 
available at:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next-2.6.git

Thanks.
