Hello!

s_server (and probably other TLS servers), requires ECDH parameters, if
using ECDH ciphersuites. (probably similarily as for DH parameters with DH
ciphersuites).
It seems, that these are supposed to be generated using:
ecparam -name 'name_of_named_curve',
but this always generates the same output (it seems to be somehow encoded
name of that curve).

Is this intended behavior?
DH parameters contained randomly changing data. ECDH, for key exchange, only
needs specified curve and nothing else?
