This suggests that people are using it with OpenFOAM:
http://powerlab.fsb.hr/ped/kturbo/OpenFOAM/slides/PatersonNuTTS2009.pdf

In fact, they use PETSc in the dynamic overset grid implementation for
OpenFOAM, which I think is an approved extension:

What most experimenters take for granted before they begin their
experiments is infinitely more interesting than any results to which their
experiments lead.
