Good link; though I suspect the most likely attack these days is from the
NSA rather than anyone else, and DH of 1024 bits is fine for that.

Unless I hear amazing stories about compatibility with largely DH
keylengths I'll be happier accepting 1024 as fine.

Not arguing that other people shouldn't want more though. :-)
