Having just spent twenty minutes staring at MAC's on the machine - it *does 
appear* we are also seeing the same as PR207701.

The machine has two lagg interfaces on it - I checked the wrong one 
initially (em based) - hence twenty minutes of head scratching and 
oh-so-long reboots (on HP kit) after I glimpsed one of them was indeed a 
MAC of 00:00:00:00:00:00 (which is on the bge based lagg vlans).

I'll go read up on the PR, add myself to it, and implement the workaround.

Sorry for the noise...
