    3232How do we use the same key for GPG and OpenSSH?  At the least, we need to have a way to convert the private key from one format to another.  While i have no problem using an OpenSSH-generated RSA private key as the private part of an X.509 key/cert pair (and vice versa), i'm having difficulty figuring out how to translate the PEM-encoded RSA keys into OpenPGP-encoded RSA keys.
