Obviously? You can apply for an export license, and if you pass

I'm trying to sort out what the situation is for RSA exportability
under the new regulations. Obviously, we can use DES, but
are we still restricted to 512 bit RSA keys. What's the story?

Is it possible to choose a seed, multiplier, and modulus for a linear
congruential generator such that it duplicates any finite list of
positive integers?
