This is observable in LibreSSL. The code is creating 3 big numbers, but
if one of them failed to create, then DSA_set0_pqg() will have never
executed and there are no references left to the created big numbers,
leaking them in the process.
E.g.:
```
Direct leak of 24 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from:
