Of course, if you're moving around and getting EUI-64 addresses via SLAAC, you can almost certainly use RFC4941 privacy addresses (instead of/in addition to) your MAC-address based address. Unless you end up behind a fascist firewall that actually checks that the EUI-64 half of the SLAAC address actually matches your MAC address - but we all know that firewalls are weak at IPv6 support, so probably nobody's actually doing that checking. :)
