"the jumbo version on Openwall.com" doesn't mean anything specific to
me. What jumbo version are you referring to?

I think not. I've just checked, and there haven't been significant
changes to dmg2john.c since 2014 (which is when 1.8.0-jumbo-1, which you
might have used, was released).

I think it doesn't need to be, or if it does then the latest hasn't been
updated either.

That's good, because a crucial fix was in fact made to dmg2john.py not
so long ago:

dmg2john.c didn't suffer from this issue.

I simply reviewed the dmg2john.c revision history. Of course, changes
in the rest of JtR could affect this program's behavior as well, but I
think in this case such review is sufficient.
Regardless, ideally you'd generate a test .dmg file on Sierra and make
sure you're able to crack its known password.
