I figured out the problem.  During testing, I set the density too
high, and forgot to set it back.  If you change the line

      <param name="density">100.0</param>

to

      <param name="density">1.0</param>


in two places, after

    <struct name="crust">
      <param name="Type">RheologyMaterial</param>
      <param name="Shape">crustShape</param>

and after

    <struct name="pdms">
      <param name="Type">RheologyMaterial</param>
      <param name="Shape">pdmsShape</param>

then the example runs fine.
