No, it's by design:
: ; perldoc doc/crypto/RSA_get0_key.pod
...
The n, e and d parameter values can be set by calling RSA_set0_key() and
passing the new values for n, e and d as parameters to the function.
Calling this function transfers the memory management of the values to
the
RSA object, and therefore the values that have been passed in should not
be freed by the caller after this function has been called.
...
: ; perldoc doc/crypto/DSA_get0_pqg.pod
...
The p, q and g values can be set by calling DSA_set0_pqg() and passing
the
new values for p, q and g as parameters to the function. Calling this
function transfers the memory management of the values to the DSA
object,
and therefore the values that have been passed in should not be freed
directly after this function has been called.
...
Cheers,
Richard
