--- Comment #3 from Damien Miller <[email protected]> ---
OpenSSH stopped using PEM keys a few releases ago because the security
of the PEM password encryption is very bad and showed no signs of
improving. 

If you don't care about key theft and offline cracking of your key's 
passphrases then you can still use the PEM key format in OpenSSH:

ssh-keygen -m PEM -f /path -t type   # generate
ssh-keygen -m PEM -p -f /path        # convert new format to PEM
