You'll need to add a call to mesh.prepare_for_use() some time before
the EquationSystems init() call.  We could probably do this
automatically in the IO classes but for the most part we don't, one
reason is to let the user control whether libmesh renumber the nodes
and elements or not...

Pretty sure PETSc works just fine on Blue Gene, but none of the
primary libmesh developers has ever had access to one to ensure that
libmesh compiles there.  Chances are good if PETSc is already working
and they have a modern C++ compiler...
