Posted it as a question there already.
Here's the thing, however. From reading the article, it seems that DH was not, itself, broken. Here's the problem, however: DH is used for forward reference security. It is used to ensure that an adversary that captured the encrypted communication cannot be decrypted later, even if the RSA key is later compromised
Which means that whether DH has already been broken is a moot question. The real question is whether it is likely to be broken in the near future (where what "near" means depends on what you're actually encrypting).
Here is what Schneier usually has to say about that: Attacks always get better over time.
Of course, the main problem with replacing DH is that we don't really have anything better on hand.
