Public bug reported:

Since Epetra_FEVector::Map() returns an Epetra_BlockMap, while the
EpetraVector constructor takes an Epetra_Map, it is not possible to
create an EpetraVector with the same layout without copying.

The attached patch changes the interface to use Epetra_BlockMap. Since
Epetra_Map inherits from Epetra_BlockMap, existing callers are
unchanged.
