Iggy:
With the Malfoy fanaticism about purebloods, I don't think Lucius 
knows...otherwise, I honestly don't think the Malfoys would support 
him if they found out.

Me:
I think Lucius knows exactly who LV is and is simply using him to 
advance his own ambitions for power. 

After all many people avidly supported Hitler and his claims that the 
Germans were the master race even though he himself was not German.  
It was irrelevant, just as LV being a mudblood is in the Dark WW, as 
long as the majority doesn't know.  LV has taken on the mantel of 
destroying all non Pure Blooded wizards, leaving a pure master race 
behind, and that is just fine by Lucius Malfoy, after all he can step 
in and take over when the truth about LV finally comes out.

Lucius' collection of Dark Material, his ancient, well-connected 
family and Lucius' own wealth, power and influence put him in a 
position where there is no way he can not know the truth about LV.  
Besides there was no mention he was surprised by Harry's 'revelation' 
in the MOM that so upset Bellatrix.
