  DH
 
+Note that DH keys may use non-standard B<DH_METHOD> implementations,
+either directly or by the use of B<ENGINE> modules. In some cases (eg. an
+ENGINE providing support for hardware-embedded keys), these BIGNUM values
+will not be used by the implementation or may be used for alternative data
+storage. For this reason, applications should generally avoid using DH
+structure elements directly and instead use API functions to query or
+modify keys.
