The dmg2john bug was fixed, and then we realized both dmg2john and the format blatantly ignored the iterations count - which is bumped a lot in later OSX versions (it was hard-coded to 1000 while newer Macs produce files with over 200,000 iterations, and seemingly depending on available CPU power at creation time). Finally, some known-plain stuff was tweaked.

My story has a happy ending...

If the missing characters of my partial password had been 7 characters, not sure it would have been. Thanks everyone!
