We (MOOSE) have some code for identifying the index sets for each split. However, the code was written by some authors who are no longer with us. Normally I would chase this down in a debugger, but this error only seems to crop up for pretty complex and large meshes. If anyone has an idea for what we might be doing wrong, that might help me chase this down faster. I guess intuitively I'm pretty perplexed that we could get ourselves into this pickle as it almost appears that we have two different local dof index counts for a given block (0 in this case).
