The only native solution is the native solutions :/ You have to compile PHP for it. Alternatively, you could write your own solution in C and use it as an extension. I'm pretty sure those are you only options.

There's a PHP library for Mcrypt. The documentation is here. It should already be installed. If it isn't there are instructions in the documentation on how to install it.
