Any recent (i.e., 0.9.7 or 0.9.8) version of openssl can do this.  The
command line to do so is:

openssl crl -inform PEM -in [PEMCRLfile] -outform DER -out [DERCRLfile]

This works on Windows and UNIX at the least, if you have a compiled
copy of openssl for Windows.  As this is a security-conscious tool, I
would recommend compiling it from source yourself -- but not on the
machine that contains the offline CA (it involves installing the
compiler and the development kit, and that's a lot of unaudited
software to be running on a critical system).

I am not sure how NSS's crlutil handles PEM, or which tool would be
used to de-PEM the target.
