John The Ripper Inconsistency

[phutelmyer]

Describe the bug
Per @cameron-dunn-sublime:

As each of these changes creates a new build and then gets tested, I've found that the encrypted zip password cracking functionality can behave inconsistently across builds. For example, today I found that the functionality wasn't working (same file, easy password in passwords file) and after rebuilding twice it began working again.

I first noticed this a while ago and figured it was due to grabbing the latest commit on the JohnTheRipper which could be unstable. I now reference a specific commit and still am seeing the inconsistent behavior. The build scripts in JTR seem pretty complex... I suspect JTR only because of the relative complexity but I have not definitively isolated the issue.
