This can pose more of a problem than the average LAN admin
may appreciate...

I may be replying prematurely, but I wouldn't be surprised
if the end solution to ISP/IP changeover winds up having
more to do with the first 64-bits of the address than the
last 64-bits, as the naming scheme splits the two up
between a MAC-derived definition and the ISP-defined
scheme. (At least in the most recent RFCs I've bothered to
read...)
