There is no "offical" way in the API to access the private key later.
This is partly true, as you can at least have two private keys (one
for RSA and one for DSA authentication) at the same time.
Solution:
Use PEM_read_PrivateKey() to read the key from the file (and thus
are able to access it "as is") and then use SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey()
to set it.
