john-jumbo 1.8.0-j1

Version bump. Changed how we handle this, to reflect upstream’s new release priorities and move to autotools. Removed a redundant part of the patch.
Whoops. Missed that this section used ` args `. Theoretically, now they've moved onto autotooling, they should be able to detect and adjust for different compilers, but I can slot the ` args ` back in somewhere if you have worries on that?
