I'm strongly opposed to keeping DSA, for the reasons given earlier.  It's dead
everywhere except SSH, it'd be nice to get rid of this one holdout as well.

Since neither the PGP nor the X.509 formats as used in SSH were ever defined,
I'd just remove them.  Short of reverse-engineering someone else's
implementation to see what they do, I can't see how you'd create an
interoperable implementation of either of these.
