A little question: why?  MD5 seems to be secure enough.

Other than that, look at the security/libmcrypt port, it has Blowfish
as an available encryption algorithm.  It's not in a usable form for
password encryption, though; you need to pull out the guts of the
encryption function and build your own crypt() function.

G'luck,
Peter
