Here are the symptoms that I observe: 1. When trying to use the Network Manager applet to assign a static IP and a cloned MAC address, the connection fails and there is no network connectivity. It doesn't matter whether I fill both the Device MAC Address and the Cloned MAC Address fields, or only the Cloned MAC Address, the result is the same. 2. When using /etc/network/interfaces with the "hwaddress ether aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff" stanza, the connection is not brought up correctly after reboot or after the cable is unplugged and plugged back in. It only works when I manually type in "sudo ifup eth0", which is unacceptable on a server. As far as I can tell, this might be caused by udev 'losing track' of the device due to the changed MAC address and not running ifup / ifdown scripts in response to kernel events, so I'm submitting this as a bug in systemd. 3. When MAC address spoofing is not used, both of these ways work correctly and network connectivity is correctly re-established after reboot and cable unplug.
