A multicast problem? Can you run for example 'arping -b <macbook's ip>'
to check if multicast stops working at some point? What if you hardcode
the ARP address, do unicast packets go to the macbook still?

If there are multicast problems, my first suspect is always power save.
Is there a way to disable power save on the macbook for narrowing down
the problem?

Also we had discussion about macbook problems before and aggreation came
up as one suspect. Now we have a debugfs interface to change aggregation
settings, but I doubt openwrt has that yet. Check the archives for more.
