An IV for MD5? I seriously doubt that.

Using google I found:

The initialization vector is the value to which the MD5 internal variables

Yes, but you won't have to deal with that when generating values for attribute 'userPassword' based on password scheme {MD5} with the help of some MD5 module for your favourite programming language or the md5sum tool. So my answer might have been unprecise regarding crypto science but was meant as practical help for the original poster.
