Scott, I suspect this is your problem: you should pass petsc_dir and
petsc_arch along instead of passing None which will cause gmakegen:Petsc
get them from the environment.

class generateExamples(Petsc):
  """
    gmakegen.py has basic structure for finding the files, writing out
      the dependencies, etc.
  """
  def __init__(self,petsc_dir=None, petsc_arch=None, verbose=False, single_ex=False):
    super(generateExamples, self).__init__(petsc_dir=None, petsc_arch=None, verbose=False)
