We just did some testing on this on the 3.7.6+ kernel.  IPv4 multicast to
mac-vlans works OK with large packets if there is a single multicast receiver,
but does NOT work if there are multiple multicast receivers (ie, several
mac-vlans with an mcast receive bound to each mvlan).

Our setup also involves routing rules and send-to-self rules,
with sender on the same machine, but I'm not sure that matters
too much or not.

Multiple receivers work fine with smaller packets that do not
need to be segmented.

Thanks,
Ben
