A RSA cipher can only be chosen, when a RSA certificate is available.
RSA export ciphers with a keylength of 512 bits for the RSA key require
a temporary 512 bit RSA key, as typically the supplied key has a length
of 1024 bit. RSA ciphers using EDH need a certificate and key and
additional DH-parameters.

A DSA cipher can only be chosen, when a DSA certificate is available.
DSA ciphers always use DH key exchange and therefore need DH-parameters.
