Digging a bit more into this, it appears Jumbo-7 unfortunately may have a serious bug in the SIP format that was not present in Jumbo-6 and that is fixed in git. See last comment here: https://github.com/magnumripper/JohnTheRipper/pull/86#issuecomment-8561660
That was a couple days before release of Jumbo-7 and I missed that it should have been merged to the -fixes branch. Ideally, that push request should have been against -fixes in the first place. Sorry.
Provided this bug is as serious at Julien says, you should really use latest git version instead. You can get a snapshot from here:
