I'm not sure how IEEE certs differ from X.509 certs...  if they don't,
you're better off reading the cert with PEM_read_bio_X509() and
extracting the public key with X509_get0_pubkey() or X509_get0_pubkey().

If IEEE certs differ in format, you must first know the exact byte
content, where the public key is in there, make sure it's encoded in
DER, and use d2i_EC_PUBKEY() to make a EC_KEY from those bytes.

Cheers,
Richard
