Even without the --dupe-suppression option, *consecutive* dupes are
suppressed and there is no option to turn that off. You can probably
hack that away fairly easy - can you build John yourself? The exaxt fix
depends on your exact command line (-pipe, -stdin or pure -wordlist, and
whether you use rules or not).
