ILUDropTolerance is not compatible with Mat re-ordering??

Dear All,

      I am trying very hard to use PCILUSetUseDropTolerance() together with PCILUSetMatOrdering(), but it does not work, no matter what kind of MatOrderingType (RCM, ND...) i choose. The message I got:

-------------------------------------------------------------

      INSTEAD the line number of the start of the function

----------------------------------------------------------

    I spent a lot of time on this and still cannot figure it out.

   Actually if I just use PCILUSetUseDropTolerance() itself, it works fine. Also,  if I choose other ILU methods such as level-based ILU, PCILUSetMatOrdering() works perfectly with them.

    I wonder how to use ILUDropTolerance together with the reordering technique (such as RCM)? or they are not compatible?
BTW, my PETSc version is 2.1.0. Is this because i am using this old version?

    Thanks a lot.

Sincerely,
Rui Wang
