For that matter, you could write a perl function using perl's built-in crypt()
function. I'm not sure if it's exactly identical to what mysql does, though I
strongly suspect that it is.

You could take the password hashing routine out of client/password.c (in
the mysql source) and write your own C function... I know just enough C
to think that it shouldn't be that hard, but not enough to do it :)
