Hello:
Actually, this is more of a question than a request for enhancement.  Does 
OpenSSL's crypto support crippled PKCS#1 encoded private keys?
Crippled PKCS#1 encoded keys are keys that don't have all the PKCS#1 
components.  I have keys that contain only the modulus, and the public and 
the private exponents.  They do not contain the primes and the CRT 
exponents and coefficient.  When I try to use these keys I get a "divide 
by zero" error from OpenSSL, raising the suspission that OpenSSL does not 
support crippled private keys.  Can you please confirm this?
Thanks.
