=head1 DESCRIPTION
-DSA_new() allocates and initializes a B<DSA> structure.
+DSA_new() allocates and initializes a B<DSA> structure. It is equivalent to
+calling DSA_new_method(NULL).
DSA_free() frees the B<DSA> structure and its components. The values are
erased before the memory is returned to the system.
