I re-did my tests this morning, and yes indeed, both CARP interfaces in
the CARP group switch automatically between the BACKUP and MASTER states
when I do abusive things to one of the connections. I say "automatically"
instead of "simultaneously" because there was a bit of a delay while the
reconnected link negotiated speed. I blame Cisco for that.

Thanks for all the assistance, I found this exchange to be quite helpful.
