I've found an LGPL md4 implementation in libmhash, libmcrypt's partner
library.  I'm reworking the configure script now to support pointing at
mhash and mcrypt for the needed functionality, though these libraries are
a sufficiently heavy dependency (pulling in libltdl, besides) that it
might be better to internalize the routines in question.
