This is really just a false salt issue. Attacking only one hash, I get 
wonderful figures (I am exhausting inc:digits in both cases):

$ ./john-jumbo12E1-intr test.hash -fo:raw-md5 -inc:digits
Using raw-md5 mode, by linking to md5_gen(0) functions
Loaded 1 password hash (Raw MD5 [gen])
guesses: 0  time: 0:00:00:09  c/s: 12196K  trying: 83536056 - 83536784

$ ./john-jumbo12E1 test.hash -fo:raw-md5 -inc:digits
Loaded 1 password hash (Raw MD5 [raw-md5 64x1])
guesses: 0  time: 0:00:00:22  c/s: 4936K  trying: 83536787 - 83536784

That's significantly better than 2x! Kudos to anyone involved.
