AFAIK, you don't get any MPLS-based load balancing options 
for 802.1AX on the ME3600X/3800X as you would on the 6500.

However, we do have some ME3600X's running as pure Layer 2 
core switches in some small PoP's, and they are able to load 
share MPLS traffic coming from MPLS-speaking/encapsulating 
routers. Not quite sure how that is happening, but compared 
to the Juniper EX4200's we had there before that failed 
completely to do the same, something is happening on the 
ME3600X's in a good way.

Just been too busy to follow-up with Cisco.

Maybe Waris can chime in if he sees this.
