Thank you, Jan. --gdbserver-port was the flag I needed.

I also found that lldb-4.0 (packaged with Ubuntu 16.04) had another 
error with remote debugging that exhibited the same symptom. Upgrading 
lldb and setting --gdbserver-port were both required to remote debug my 
docker container. But now it works beautifully!
