Yup.  See the Message manual on Security.  You want:

     (setq mml-signencrypt-style-alist '(("smime" combined)
                                         ("pgp" combined)
                                         ("pgpmime" combined)))

I think Gnus should default to this, or even better, figure out when
it doesn't work and revert back to the combined mode.
