The specs only say that the primary key must be capable of signing.
There is nothing in it to forbid a signing-only subkey.  In fact it
has always been possible to create a DSA subkey with GnuPG.

I agree that gpg has the bug to ask for some properties (size of key)
and later ignores the values because they make no sense for DSA.

Ciao,
