    I also doubled the length of the work strings used in processing options so 
your options won't get truncated and hence not get processed properly.

Hi,

since we recently upgraded our nighlty valgrind validations to PETSc 3.9.2, 
valgrind found a bug in PetscOptionsFindPair_Private, called from:

PetscOptionsHasName("M_AssembleurGD_H_/pmi/cmpbib/compilation_BIB_gcc_valgrind/COMPILE_AUTO/BIBTestValidation/Ressources/opt/Test.assemblageDynamique/Ressources.Lettre_C_2016_gsf_P2B5_Z450_mp/Lettre_C_2016_gsf_P2B5_Z450_mp_A_SolveurLin_pour_solveur_","-::GIREF_NOM_PREFIXE_OPTIONS_PETSC");

valgrind complains with:

==253393== Source and destination overlap in strncat(0x1ffeff62e0, 
0x1ffeff6299, 108)
==253393==    at 0x4C2C976: strncat (vg_replace_strmem.c:348)
==253393==    by 0x1522912F: PetscStrlcat (str.c:460)
==253393==    by 0x151DE08A: PetscOptionsFindPair_Private (options.c:1361)
==253393==    by 0x151DF153: PetscOptionsHasName (options.c:1502)
...

We noticed that the PETSc code has changed close from there, so maybe it is 
related?

We do not have the bug with Petsc versions: {3.5.3,3.8.3} that we used to tests 
with valgrind.

Thanks,

Eric
