That's true, but it supports what it calls a BJacobi preconditioner: a block
Jacobi version in which an ILU of the diagonal blocks of the matrix is
performed (as opposed to an ILU of the entire matrix). You should give that a
try.

We're working on a parallel version of step-31 (which has as its central part
a Stokes solver). It's not ready yet, though, and may take a few more weeks.
The parallel part is going to be based on Trilinos rather than PETSc.
Take a look at the current state of step-31 in the subversion repository. If
you have experience with Trilinos, we would certainly appreciate any help!
