Yes, but like I said postponing this might mean that you're currently
running into problems that you would not even have.

Since you don't yet have any new code that you'd actually use (all you
have are some unsuccessful tests), I think starting from scratch based
on 1.7.9-jumbo-5 is the best option.

While you're debugging, sure.

Like I said, I have no idea if the information given in that book is
correct or not and if you're interpreting it correctly or not.  Instead,
it might be better for you to compare the result of the first DES
encryption as you say.

Somehow these give me "Sorry, that page was not found."  I guess they
were meant to be pages from the book or something; I'd rather not spend
time verifying and analyzing them anyway.
