Supported ciphers may be set in the connector without regard to any
details of the server's X509 key or the certificate created with it.

You can have an RSA key and still support RC4-SHA as one of your
ciphers. Likewise, you can use a DSA key (for which OpenSSL always
uses MD5 as the signature algorithm) with ciphers that use SHA1 as the
signature algorithm.

Keys/certs and ciphers are entirely orthogonal in the algorithms they
support. SSL uses asymmetric encryption to exchange symmetric cipher
keys using any cipher upon which the server and client can agree.
Those ciphers are not limited by anything in the server's certificate
or key.

I have answered it above. If you disagree with my answer, please be
specific.
