Problem solved. The bug was caused by the fact that the oracle uses the username as the salt. If the length of the username exceeds the value #define SALT_SIZE, then either the password will never crack or john will crash. In my test I actually had a 27 character oracle username. Not sure how best to resolve this, but at least we know the issue.
