hi, this is my first time submitting a bug, please let me know if
I'm doing anything wrong.

OpenSSL irritatingly waits until after it generates diffie-hellman
parameters to check to see if the outpath is writable, throwing them
away if it is not:

$ uname -a
OpenBSD uglyman.kremlin.cc 5.5 GENERIC.MP#165 amd64
$ rm -rf baddir
$ openssl dhparam -outform PEM -out baddir/test.pem 1024
Generating DH parameters, 1024 bit long safe prime, generator 2
This is going to take a long time
<many breadcrumbs>
baddir/test.pem: No such file or directory

thanks,
ian
