Thank you for reporting this!
Lukas - can you try to reproduce and fix it, please?

BTW, for slow hash types like this, you may want to eliminate duplicate
candidate passwords resulting from the application of rules. So you'd
use something like this:
./john --wordlist=<path to my dict> --rules --stdout | ./unique mangled.lst
./john --wordlist=mangled.lst --format=cryptmd5opencl /home/dlaporte/hashes

BTW, the c/s rate is quite low for OpenCL. What hardware, OS, OpenCL
implementation is that?
For example, you can obtain a c/s rate like this (for the same hash type
indeed) on a Core 2 Duo by building -jumbo with the linux-x86-64i make
target and enabling OpenMP in the Makefile - that's without OpenCL.

This does indeed look like a bug, but I'm not sure where the bug is.

No, I think you are not.
Thanks again,
