[Trilinos-Users] CrsMatrix with col map is broken

I asked about this a week ago and haven't seen a reply, so I'm trying again with a more antagonistic subject.
If I declare an Epetra.CrsMatrix with both a row map and a col map, I can do matvec operations with it, but I cannot build an AztecOO with it. Am I doing something wrong?
Details below.

At first I thought this was some issue with rectangular matrices, but I see the same issues with square matrices.

Um... OK... I see where that error is generated in `az_comm.c`, but what does it mean?

Otherwise, without an overlapping column map, I can't build the matrix properly, but if I use an overlapping column map, I can't solve the thing, no matter what I tell it about its domain and range maps. I've also tried `ReplaceColMap()` to no avail.
