I can somewhat reproduce this on my system, except the device that comes
up early is (more expectedly than wlan0) eth0. All interfaces but that
one do get the right value set for use_tempaddr; and there seems to be
something fishy going on when setting these values in sysctl anyway:
net.ipv6.conf.all.use_tempaddr doesn't affect all the interfaces
directly as it seems it should, nor does it override the behaviour at
all.

I sent an email to linux-netdev regarding this matter:

As a workaround I guess we might want to set some of these things in
initramfs (althought there are some cases where we want to not have an
initramfs, then we're still stuck), or somehow in udev; until this is
clarified and fixed in the kernel.
