Is there any way to create and use a bridge inside a VE? I have a DNAT-ed OpenVPN server inside a VE, and I would like to create a bridged OpenVPN setup for the local VEs.

brctl addbr br0
add bridge failed: Invalid argument

strace brctl addbr br0
execve("/usr/sbin/brctl", ["brctl", "addbr", "br0"], [/* 11 vars */]) = 0
uname({sys="Linux", node="meta", ...}) = 0
brk(0) = 0x804e000
access("/etc/ld.so.nohwcap", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
mmap2(NULL, 8192, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0xb7fe7000
access("/etc/ld.so.preload", R_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/etc/ld.so.cache", O_RDONLY) = 3
fstat64(3, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=15630, ...}) = 0
mmap2(NULL, 15630, PROT_READ, MAP_PRIVATE, 3, 0) = 0xb7fe3000
close(3) = 0

munmap(0xb7fe3000, 15630) = 0
socket(PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_IP) = 3
ioctl(3, 0x89a0, 0xbfcbff1d) = -1 EPERM (Operation not permitted)
ioctl(3, SIOCSIFBR, 0xbfcbfa08) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)
write(2, "add bridge failed: Invalid argum"..., 36add bridge failed: Invalid argument
) = 36
exit_group(1) = ?

Any idea?

bridhes can't be used iside VE, only on host-node. Probably this article can help you: http://wiki.openvz.org/Virtual_Ethernet_device#Virtual_ether net_devices_can_be_joined_in_one_bridge
