The OpenSSL FIPS Object Module implements all three extant DRBGs (Dual
EC DRBG has been removed). The DRBGs are noted in the Security Policy

  http://csrc.nist.gov/groups/STM/cmvp/documents/140-1/140sp/140sp1747.pdf

which is worth referencing for any "does the OpenSSL FIPS Object Module
have X" questions.
