Since they were added in #149 only for the PHP buildpack's benefit, however, are no longer used by PHP as of PHP 7.2+:

The few bindings I could find for other langs are all (a) not popular, (b) in a state of disrepair, eg:
https://github.com/tugrul/node-mcrypt (70 stars, last commit 5 years ago)
https://github.com/kingpong/ruby-mcrypt (22 stars, last commit 7 years ago)
(Which is not surprising given much better alternatives exist, such as Sodium, which is already in the base image.)

Towards #266.
