Thanks!  That got me halfway there.

That gives me a DER steam that is a SEQUENCE of two INTEGERs.  The first 
is the public modulus and the second one is the exponent.

How do I go from that SEQUENCE to the components, and then from the 
components to their byte streams and lengths?

I assume it's some raw DER function like d2i_something.
