Can you remind me how this problem occurred?  I should make it a switch in
the code because it is not super cheap to do and you are the only ones to
have had this problem.

Can you please send my the output of a bad run with -pc_gamg_verbose 2
(again?).  I suspect that there is something wrong with your problem or
there is something that should be fixed in PETSc.  This solution just
papers over the problem.
