No. Yahoo's server key exchange message is 525 bytes, which is
large enough for a 2048-bit RSA signature (256 bytes) + 2 1024-bit
values (p, g^S), a short generator and a key exchange algorithm
number. They sure seem to be using a 1024-bit prime.
The OP can try wireshark if a more complete decode is desired.

No, it is the OP's problem, but with his dh_min_bits configuration, not
his private key or certificate.
