Sinan,

I had already tried that and, indeed, it might be technically
correct. But what I really want is an output file that is ASN.1
encoded and in a standard PEM key format, which is what you get
when you use the key->write method. It's just that the latter
seems to give only a private key file (which may actually include
the public key, but that's just speculation on my part).
