Good, candidates look OK now. We still have two issues:

Even if incremental now runs what you intended, it could take a LONG 
time (as in years) to hit the correct phrase. What if you use that 
wordlist you produced and instead of making a fake pot file, use it 
directly as a wordlist in a crack? If it's the correct book I reckon 
you'd crack your password in no time, no?

Also, speed doesn't look too good. It seems to run slow. Or maybe our 
test vectors doesn't reflect real-world costs.

Are you running without OpenMP, or on a CPU with just one core? Please 
stop this job (as you probably know it can be resumed) and post the 
benchmark figures from:

$ ../run/john -test -form:tc_*

Also, when you resume the job, copy the inital lines output when job 
starts and report them too; Is it loading two "hashes"? Shouldn't it be 
just one?
