Subject: Ability to exceeds the limit of 24char length

Is there any way to make john able to exceed the limit of 24 digits of char-length of passwords when using the incremental method. 
Changing the file john.conf to use MaxLen= 26, i get the error 
"MaxLen = 26 exceeds the compile-time limit of 24"
