Did you try padding with 0xAB so that it was a 56-bit key rather
than a 64-bit key? (ie. memset(key+7, 0xAB, 9).)

Also you might want to try making the key the HMAC of the string
constant "fortybits" with the original key, or (if HMAC is 
already used to prepare a derived key) prepending "fortybits"
to the derivation salt.
