This is certainly there in the development version, and we plan to release
in a week
or so. However, a very easy fix is to update the list of enums at the top of

   include/finclude/petscmat.h

with the enum from

   include/petscmat.h

  Thanks,

     Matt

Note that using runtime option  -mat_ignore_lower_triangular works, but I
