--- Comment #10 from Eugene Grosbein <eugen@freebsd.org> ---
The driver tap(4) was recently rewritten and merged with tun(4) driver to
single if_tuntap(4) driver. This may be reason behaviour change. The code n=
ow
tries to create unique but stable (non-random) MAC adress based on interface
name and contents of sysctl kern.hostuuid of the host or jail owning the
interface.

Please verify if all your systems have different kern.hostuuid or not and
report back.
