I have at least a routine called fcrypt (Fast Crypt), which is included with
several programs, don't know if having it is leagal, but at least you may
get it also outside Europe:
The header says:
/*
* This program is copyright Alec Muffett 1991 except for some portions of
* code in "crack-fcrypt.c" which are copyright Robert Baldwin, Icarus Sparry
* and Alec Muffett. The author(s) disclaims all responsibility or liability
* with respect to it's usage or its effect upon hardware or computer
* systems, and maintain copyright as set out in the "LICENCE" document which
* accompanies distributions of Crack v4.0 and upwards.
*/
/*
* Misc defs for the fast password transform optimisations.
*/
Maybe that helps,
Kurt
