Yes, this is correct. If you look in the rc script for sshd you will 
find something like:

: ${sshd_dsa_enable:="no"}

This is because DSA is not considered secure anymore. But the problem is 
that DSA still is implicitly enabled by default in the currect version 
of OpenSSH that comes with FreeBSD. This is why you get that error message.
