Could I suggest to add this in the default .h files?:
#define d2i_PrivateKey_bio(bp,x) (EVP_PKEY *)ASN1_d2i_bio(\
(char *(*)())EVP_PKEY_new, (char *(*)())d2i_PrivateKey, bp, \
(unsigned char **)x)
I wanted to be able to save my private keys in DER format, and read them
later... I didn't find the macro/function to do it... Unfortunately, my
definition doesn't handle encrypted keys...
