I have recently heard of (but have never actually seen) motherboards that allow
you to set the mac address of the nic(s) to whatever you choose.  Seems like a
rather poor idea, but...

Do you have one of those?  Is the bios setting for that set to something
equivalent to "random"?  If so, you could probably set a fixed mac address
there and solve the problem.
