Attached are the output. To give a little more context, this is a "new" way of running the code where multiple instances are created and communicate together every few time steps (like coupling the code with itself in memory). Here there are 3 instances that
each have a separate TS object, plus one "main" instance that doesn't solve anything but compute rates to exchange between the other instances.</div>

I am trying to understand a strange behavior I'm encountering: when running my application with "-ts_exact_final_time stepover" everything goes well, but when I switch to "matchstep" I get DIVERGED_STEP_REJECTED before the first time step is finished.
