Hmm. First: it does work. I have tried it myself before posting :-)
Having this said, if you don't specify any file with dh-parameters (and there
is no server.pem=s_cert_file), s_server uses the compiled in default
parameters, see line 660.

Oh, I am talking about OpenSSL 0.9.6.

To use ADH ciphers, the PRNG must be seeded. The examples I have just
listed were from my Linux-box at home (has /dev/urandom).
