My premise is that we are considering only OpenSSL v 1.0.0. Under this
condition, as I wrote in the first post, I do something like:

# generate EC private key for curve sect571k1, no point compression
# (to enable point compression, use "-conv_form compressed" )
openssl ecparam -out cakey.pem -name sect571k1 -text -genkey

# generate EC certificate with the above private key with SHA512
# (note that the -sha512 arg has no effect if using v0.9.8, it
# will use SHA-1 instead)
openssl req -out cacert.pem -key cakey.pem -sha512 -x509 -new

# check that everything is OK
openssl x509 -text -in cacert.pem

Certificate:
...
        *Signature Algorithm: ecdsa-with-SHA512*
        Issuer:
...
            Public Key Algorithm: id-ecPublicKey
            EC Public Key:
                pub:
                    02:3A:...
                ASN1 OID: sect571k1
        X509v3 extensions:
...
    *Signature Algorithm: ecdsa-with-SHA512*
        20:89:...
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
MIJ...
...
ASd45g==
-----END CERTIFICATE-----


Any wrongdoing up to here?
