As of PHP 5.1.2 a new set of hashing functions is available (as default). The new function hash() supports a new range of hasing methods.

Theese are the supported types on my FreeBSD box:

print_r(hash_algos());
Array
(
[0] => md2
[1] => md4
[2] => md5
[3] => sha1
[4] => sha256
[5] => sha384
[6] => sha512
[7] => ripemd128
[8] => ripemd160
[9] => whirlpool
[10] => tiger128,3
[11] => tiger160,3
[12] => tiger192,3
[13] => tiger128,4
[14] => tiger160,4
[15] => tiger192,4
[16] => snefru
[17] => gost
[18] => adler32
[19] => crc32
[20] => crc32b
