No.  The MAC is fixed coded in the source, and is only seeing from 
coLinux side, not from the host side.  SLiRP handle only TCP and UDP 
datagrams to the outside, it's never sending ARP requests.

I think, you never need to change the MAC, because it's a virtual 
network only between coLinux and the host.  The seeing from outsite into 
your host the slirp use your MAC from your network adapater.  From the 
outside your SLIiRP interface is completly hidden, it's seeing only as a 
application using the winsock networking API.
