@herbetom reported the eth0 mac to be random since merging gluon next
https://paste.linuxlounge.net/QA

it might be related to this commit:
openwrt/openwrt@b22d382

maybe something broke the label mac since then or the label mac never worked at all

Update:
thanks to @neocturne

[13:26] djfe: the problem with the MAC address on ipq40xx is the missing alias ethernet0 in the Device Tree, which is used by the bootloader to fill in MAC addresses. It was previously incorrectly set in the SoC DTSI, but it belongs in in the board DTS(I). When it got removed from the SoC DTSI due to the update to Linux 6.6, nobody fixed it in the board DTS.
