Using pcre for this task is maybe a little bit overkilling. I think a
simple Scanf should do. 

Maybe even simple, split the string at ':' and match the first part:
match split_colon line with 
 | "Private-Key", data -> 
    Scanf.sscanf data "%d bit" (set_size key)

 | "modulus", data -> ...
    ...

 | "-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----" ->
    ...

 | _ ->

It should make your code a little more compact.
