FWIW, we have a "shijin" theme for Drupal 5.x being used in
norcal-hug.org. I can provide you with the files if you want to look
into it.

As (one of) the main authors of this theme, I hope I have a say on
this. :)
I would be reluctant to put the theme up for anyone to grab. The reason
is that this theme is also part of our identity, and if anyone can take
our theme and use it, then we risk diluting the Haiku brand. Even open
source projects (such as Ubuntu, and even Drupal) take this position and
do not release their website themes, and I think it would be the wise
thing to do for Haiku.
Cheers,
Koki
