"Snefru" is widely available, tho probably not widely used, and uses MD5 for authentication. The US goverment does not appear to have gone after the author. I wrote a system using MD5 for auth, inspired by snefru, but I have no intention of allowing it off campus, at this point. :( Snefru does not use MD5. It's an alternative to it, and not as strong.
