Password hashing compatible with Java and PHP

Is there a secure password hashing library (e.g. phpass) or hashing method that I can easily use in both PHP and Java?

If you want do the easy thing, you can use sha-N with salt. (N being 1, 256 or 512)

Jeff Atwood did a nice blog post on that recently, saying that bcrypt and PBKDF2 are the best options.

In PHP you can use bcrypt (and in Java too)

md5 and SHA with salt are the most widely used ones.

Any standard library such as SHA*, MD* will do. SHA>2 is recommended (e.g. SHA512).
