I convert the n% to real offsets prior to really starting markov mode.
So, MPI or not MPI, there should be no difference between

 $ ./john --stdout --markov:200:1%:2%:12 |head -n 1
End: 2% converted to 5187128
Start: 1% converted to 2593564
MKV start (stats=$JOHN/stats, lvl=200 len=12 pwd=2593564)
cholplet


$ ./john --stdout --markov:200:1%:2%:12 |tail -n 1
End: 2% converted to 5187128
Start: 1% converted to 2593564
MKV start (stats=$JOHN/stats, lvl=200 len=12 pwd=2593564)

and

$ ./john --stdout --markov:200:2593564:5187128:12 |head -n 1
