Here are some tips:

- Fix the time on your computer and rebuild PETSc if necessary to get 
rid of the clock skew message
- Try compiling without PETSc.
- Test that your PETSc installation is working ('make test' in the PETSc 
directory)
- Test your mpi compiler by compiling a 'hello world' program
- Run
    python scons/simula-scons/simula_scons/pkgconfiggenerators/petsc.py
and add some print statements to find out where the error crops up.
