I took the lazy way and just modified a function I already had to convert the DER encoded cert data for output to a file and just passed the memory bio to the PEM_read_bio_X509 function.

However since the PKCS#11 certificate constains the DER encoded certificate you can use d2i_X509() to decode it and populate the X509 structure: info on using the d2i_*() functions is in the FAQ.
