The OpenSSL DSA implementation (as of 0.9.6g) appears to have the same 
multithreading issue that the RSA implementation used to have, namely 
that multiple threads simultaneously triggering the BN_MONT_CTX caching 
results in a race condition.  My own testing suggests that the DSA code 
can benefit from the same fix as was applied to RSA.

If anyone needs patches, I'll jump through the appropriate BXA hoops and 
post them here.
