Thanks Dave.
Sure I can't recover the private key from the public. Otherwise it wouldn't
make any sense to use the DSA algorithm at all.
I dig a little into fips code and think using FIPs test vectors to validate
my API is not practical.
Looks like FIPs deals with openssl internals to test it.

What is the down side of truncating a hash? For example, an SHA-256
hash is 256 bits. Is it any less secure if one was to drop the last 128
bits to make a 128 bit hash or take the MD5 hash of the SHA-256 hash to
get a 128 bit hash? It does not seem that such an action would make it

Yes, a truncated hash is less secure against both collision and
