Just a "me too" report (key that was "RSA" converted to "OPENSSH"), but with a different consequence. In our case, this broke compatibility with python code we had that was trying to read the key.

While googling about this, I found https://stackoverflow.com/questions/56473553/why-cant-openssl-read-an-ssh-private-key-created-by-openssh-on-osx/56488091#56488091 that suggests that this is a Mac/Linux issue.
That also led to https://serverfault.com/a/950686/376938.
