If "strong" primes were used to generate the DH parameters, it is not strictly

secrecy. If it is not assured that "strong" primes were used,

SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE must be used in order to prevent small subgroup

attacks. Always using SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE has an impact on the

computer time needed during negotiation, but it is not very large, so
