I found the problem, or at least a workaround. I have a PetscRandom and freed it in the second to last line of my main subroutine:
	...
  ierr=  PetscRandomCreate(PETSC_COMM_WORLD, &r);CHKERRQ(ierr);
  ierr = PetscRandomSetType(r,PETSCRAND48);CHKERRQ(ierr);
	...
  ierr = PetscRandomDestroy( r );CHKERRQ(ierr);
  ierr = PetscFinalize();
}

If I comment out the line with PetscRandomDestroy, -log_summary seems to work.
