Sherry,
I tested with superlu_dist v4.1. The extra printings are gone, but hang
remains.
It hangs at

#5  0x00007fde5af1c818 in PMPI_Wait (request=0xb6e4e0,
status=0x7fff9cd83d60)
    at src/mpi/pt2pt/wait.c:168
#6  0x00007fde602dd635 in pzgstrf (options=0x9202f0, m=4900, n=4900,
    anorm=13.738475134194639, LUstruct=0x9203c8, grid=0x9202c8,
    stat=0x7fff9cd84880, info=0x7fff9cd848bc) at pzgstrf.c:1308

                if (recv_req[0] != MPI_REQUEST_NULL) {
 -->                   MPI_Wait (&recv_req[0], &status);

We will update petsc interface to superlu_dist v4.1.
