The comments on https://gitlab.com/gnutls/gnutls/-/issues/1077 by the GnuTLS
project team indicate that if neither function is used then the client would
have to indicate which DH parameters should be used. In the absence of that,
Exim is going to have to call one of them.

gnutls_certificate_set_known_dh_params() would be more appropriate than
gnutls_certificate_set_dh_params()
