Libmesh supports older versions of PETSc, so, since that's your code,
you're obligated to make it support old versions of PETSc. You may be able
to do that by disabling the functionality entirely (so libmesh builds with
an old PETSc, but those functions would fail at run-time). The decision of
_how_ (not if) to maintain backward compatibility is why I started this
thread.
