Comment (by nacin):

 As much as I hate pluggable functions, this is ''precisely'' what they're
 good for. I'd rather see a plugin override both methods than a filter or a
 constant. (Have you seen http://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php?
 Let's not add something to that page that could seriously screw up your
 install.)

 Also, for what it's worth, a plugin can simply do `$wp_hasher = new
 PasswordHash(8, false);` before WordPress does. No need for plugging, or
 hooking, or defining.
