[petsc-users] nonzero prescribed boundary condition

[Barry Smith]

   In petsc-dev http://www.mcs.anl.gov/petsc/petsc-as/developers/index.html we have modified the calling sequence for MatZeroRows() so that it can automatically adjust the appropriate right hand side values for the zeroed rows to support zero or non-zero prescribed boundary conditions easily.
