Thats right, but the MAC isn't known until a card is detected as a ethernet card of the right type by the driver. And the driver also doesn't know wich address was at eth0 at the last boot.... So if I am not mistaken pci cards (ethernet or grabber) are detected in the same sequence each time the driver loads. Unless you switch the cards.
