Tests have shown that PBiCGStab with the DILU preconditioner is more
robust, reliable and shows faster convergence (~2x) than PBiCG with
DILU, in particular in parallel where PBiCG occasionally diverges.

This remarkable improvement over PBiCG prompted the update of all
tutorial cases currently using PBiCG to use PBiCGStab instead.  If any
issues arise with this update please report on Mantis: http://bugs.openfoam.org
