Thanks, that got me over the hump.  I got u-boot to add that key to the
device tree with this u-boot script,

        i2c dev 0
        eeprom read 0 0x50 0 0x1804 0x400
        env import -b 0 0x400 hw_rev serial ethaddr
        setenv bootargs "root=ld0a"
        fatload mmc 0 0x01f00000 device~1.dtb
        fatload mmc 0 0x02000000 netbsd.ub
        fdt addr 0x01f00000
        fdt set /axi/ethernet@e000b000 local-mac-address $ethaddr
        bootm 0x02000000 - 0x01f00000

I used `nbmkubootimage -A arm -a 0 -C none -n "u-boot script" -T script
my-script $msdos_boot_partition/u-boot.scr` to write it in the format
and location that u-boot expected.  Now cemac0 has the right MAC
address.

I will commit my .dts and such in coming days.
