Thanks!  I notice that it's also listed in the table at
http://openwall.info/wiki/john/patches , which is great.  Please post
the latter URL and a brief description of your new patch to john-users.
This is not development-only stuff, I think.  Someone may actually want
to use this, whereas on the development side your patch stands on its
own, not to be merged into -jumbo soon, right?  Or should we merge it,
do you think?

There are approx. 10 times more subscribers on -users than on -dev
(approx. 1180 vs. 90 last time I checked).

What problems?  Perhaps not with 1.7.8, but with some other patch?
Or do you mean groszek tried to forward-port your old patch revision to
1.7.8, but needed your help with that - so you took care of the update?

Thanks again,

Alexander
