I guess that openssl(1) somehow doesn't recognize the format of
the key file, thus thinking that it may be encrypted.
While I don't know what may cause this behavior, I'd try to use
GnuTLS' certtool(1) to generate the request, in the hope that
it's unlikely that both OpenSSL and GnuTLS would've been broken
in the same way.
$ openssl --generate-request --load-privkey=server.key --outfile=server.csr
