So, now I am "just curious" about how to lie a MAC to get thought a MAC
access list barrier...

Could you give a proof-of-concept description on this matter ?

Sure. Sniff the wire for a valid MAC. On linux, you may simply 
execute the command 'ifconfig hw ether <MAC addr>' 
to "spoof" your MAC address. 
On Windows you need to write (imho) a simple C script to achive the same.
