[petsc-dev] DMDA_*PERIODIC and DMDA_XYZGHOSTED

[Ethan Coon]

The IOR() intrinsic does this in every fortran compiler I've been able
to test (gnu, pgi, intel, absoft) (yes, I find it sad that I have that
many fortran compilers available to me here... I think we have nag
somewhere as well...).

Will clean them out.
