Via a checkpoint in `PetscOptionsCheckInitial_Private`, I can confirm that `checkstack` is set to `PETSC_TRUE` and this leads to no (additional) information about erroneous stack handling.

Hi Barry, <br>
<br>
Thanks a lot for fixing this issue. I ran the same problem on a linux machine and have the following trace for the same crash (with ASAN turned on for both PETSc (on the latest commit of the branch) and the application) :
<a href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__gist.github.com_s-2Dsajid-2Dali_85bdf689eb8452ef8702c214c4df6940&d=DwMFaQ&c=gRgGjJ3BkIsb5y6s49QqsA&r=w-DPglgoOUOz8eiEyHKz0g&m=q5fD8r624Cr0Ow4AKTmgeLtq_M--q_KdGYMkBNiKOMDa8o82C8P97vdCRcxrqTCF&s=Z8JyNKYXjUZE4DXYKvjxTOG4HZUA95U6z750WC6gUCo&e=" id="x_x_m_8562366749820488076x_m_-8224865940736422939LPlnkOWALinkPreview" target="_blank">
https://gist.github.com/s-sajid-ali/85bdf689eb8452ef8702c214c4df6940</a><br>
<br>
The trace seems to indicate a couple of buffer overflows, one of which causes the crash. I'm not sure as to what causes them.
