[petsc-dev] Fortran interface problem in v.3.10.2

[Smith, Barry F.]

   Sorry about this problem. I think the change was only introduced in master and should not affect 3.10.x Please confirm that master is where the failed compile is?

   Please send us the calling sequence of your routine that won't compile (cut and paste).
