Mesquite and Seabuckthorn are the only two that come to mind fitting the criteria.

The link to a discussion, given by Jack, above, has lots of people's suggestions for nitrogen fixers for different climates, usages, winter hardiness zones, etc.

Works at a residential alternative high school in the Himalayas SECMOL.org . "Back home" is Cape Cod, E Coast USA.
