I haven't seen one. If I had it would quite likely had got merged in the
Squid-2.6 mega patch merge release..

The code getting the MAC is currently in the acl code. This should get
moved and associate the MAC with the client connection instead, in many
ways similar to how clientNatLookup associates the original destination
with the client connection in transparent proxy setups.
Then the logging needs to be extended to pass the MAC address along.
You are welcome to post on squid-dev to discuss the fine details. Or
join the IRC channel #squiddev on irc.freenode.net (most of the time
there is some Squid developer awake there..)
