I always hate mentioning this 'cause I feel like an attention whore or something, but nevertheless, I can't get the thing tested thouroughly without a bit of whoring...
I've been working on a crypto extension for PHP for a while now, and since you guys seem into the crypto thing, you might like to check it out. It's not really meant to be a replacement for mcrypt/mhash or anything, just as an alternative. (One advantage is that it works on Windows as well as UNIX, and I believe the native, non-cygwin win32 port of libmcrypt/libmhash are no longer maintained.) Anyways, if you're at all interested, see http://www.tutorbuddy.com/software/ It supports pretty much all of the algorithms mcrypt and mhash do, plus a few more. (30-some block and stream ciphers, the usual block cipher modes, and 17 hash/checksum algorithms altogether.) Again, I hate the self-promotion, but as you all probably know, cryptography is useless unless it's been tested, studied and proven to be effective.
