Can you make MatView_SeqAIJ look up the stack and figure out that it's a
parallel matrix and print itself appropriately? While you're at it, maybe
you can also print information about the DM and the SNES that it came from.
;-)

BuildSystem is still its own repository that you can interact with without
informing petsc. Think of committing from inside BuildSystem meaning that
you explicitly don't want to sync with petsc-dev yet. Committing from the
parent directory indicates that you do want to sync.

I think this will be a rare problem and it's easy enough for the next
person to fix. Certainly no worse than the current system, and the subrepo
model has a bunch of other advantages.
