Yes.

Proof: If you run "make test" in your OpenSSL configuration (or, if
you have done so once, just "make test_ssl" in the test directory),
SSL connections will be done using DSA certificates.  The key used is
in file keyU.ss, it's created by the test/testss shell script, and it
is not encrypted.

(Before 0.9.5a, "make test" failed for "no-rsa" configurations,
so you may not be accustomed to running it.)
