[petsc-dev] mpi/cuda issue

[Satish Balay]

An alternative is to have another nightly build with
--download-superlu_dist-commit=origin/master. [similary add in other
packages that currenlty use origin/master]

This test is to detect issues early with any upstream changes.

The update in master would be manual process anyway.. [so one can do
it manually via next (after full tests)..]
