See Warris' recent post to C-NSP which linked to documentation about the load balancing behaviour of MPLS labelled traffic for the ME3600X/ME3800X and ASR920 boxes, they are two examples of Cisco devices which look into the pseudowire. They also detect if there is or isn't a control-word. For stuff like the 7600 is more basic: "MPLS Layer 2 VPN Load Balancing: Load balancing is based on the VC label in the MPLS core if the first nibble of the MAC address in the customer Ethernet frame is not 4."
