I don't know the polynomials of the different existing impementations,
so I can't further help on this.

Please note that md4 is specified as an secure algorithm, but there
are atacks and know colisions againsting it, so is not longer secure
in the cyptography sense.  However, it is still an fast (Because it
simplicity) and secure (Because it length, 128 bits) algorithm for
chech for random errors only.
