Sorry for the late chime-in; just now catching up on petsc-dev. MUMPS doesn't claim to use anything considered recent in terms of METIS. As for as I can see, they still haven't applied my patch to update MUMPS to work with METIS 5.0: https://listes.ens-lyon.fr/sympa/arc/mumps-users/2011-11/msg00027.html The same goes (as of this afternoon) about George not updating METIS with the patches we sent a while back.
