gcrypt has a function for this in tests/fipsdev.c :

/* Read the file FNAME assuming it is a PEM encoded private key file
   and return an S-expression.  With SHOW set, the key parameters are
   printed.  */
static gcry_sexp_t
read_private_key_file (const char *fname, int show)


Is it what you're looking for?
