[petsc-users] petsc 3.0 vs petsc 2.3

[Satish Balay]

Is this application making PETSc calls from fortran? You'll have to go
through the changes file - and make sure the prototype changes are
applied to your code [a fortran compiler doesn't help with prototype
checks here].
http://www.mcs.anl.gov/petsc/petsc-as/documentation/changes/300.html

[If the above doesn't catch all changes] use valgrind to figureout
which function/s are corrupting data - and then check if the code is
using the function prototype correctly [by verifying with the manpage]
