keys!)

For some mysterious reason somebody disabled use of openssl with dsage to
create certificates. This new spkg fixes this problem. The actual patch is
a simple 1-liner:

}}}
Without this, on many platforms -- e.g., sage.math -- it takes hours to
generate keys, since GNUtls's key generation program is crap.
