I would like that virtual mac-address to be sent out for my proxy arpd ip address, this was the NATs and rules I setup on the master will persist to the slave should the master fail. The alternative (I think) would be for me to setup a second IP address on each of the servers and carp them as well (this will allow me to carp the new IP range we have).
