Yes the error is shape mis-match since PETSC_NULL_INTEGER has been
changed to be an array (whereas it used to just be an integer), and the
subroutine is expecting an integer not an array.
If 0 is what will always be expected, then I agree, just pass 0. But if
there is a potential for this to change
in the future, then it seems better to hide this under a named entity.

Barry,
Is it then incorrect (and potentially dangerous) to use
PETSC_NULL_INTEGER(1) for these arguments, even if that
currently works?
I thought you got warnings or errors because you are passing an array
instead of a value?
Anyways since Fortran is pass by reference passing either a PetscInt II
or PetscInt II(1) does the same things but modern Fortran compilers require
you to pass a scalar when expected (II) and an array when expected (II(1))
otherwise the compiler warns or errors. Better to pass what is expected, in
this case a 0.

Chris,
These arguments should never have been PETSC_NULL_INTEGER since they are
integers (and not pointers or arrays), you should pass 0 for them.

With petsc-3.7.5, I had F90 code like this:
CALL MatSeqAIJSetPreallocation(aa_symmetric,PETSC_NULL_INTEGER,d_nnz,ierr);
CHKERRQ(ierr)
CALL
MatMPIAIJSetPreallocation(aa_symmetric,PETSC_NULL_INTEGER,d_nnz,PETSC_NULL_INTEGER,o_nnz,ierr);
CHKERRQ(ierr)
which worked fine. Now, with petsc-3.8.4, the same code gives this compilation
error:
error #6634: The shape matching rules of actual arguments and dummy arguments
have been violated. [PETSC_NULL_INTEGER]
CALL MatSeqAIJSetPreallocation(aa_symmetric,PETSC_NULL_INTEGER,d_nnz,ierr);
if (ierr .ne. 0) then ; call PetscErrorF(ierr); return; endif

What's the intended usage now, simply 0 instead of PETSC_NULL_INTEGER?
