Andreas, you can just change the threshold to 0 in your application.

0) just call Dune::FMatrixPrecision<>::set_singular_limit(0.0);

1) Rescaling is the way to go if the matrix is like in your case, although you should better scale the last line by 1e-9.

2) Full pivoting would be the proper fix, but your suggested fix isn't a fix at all.

If you just force dune to invert your matrix, you A*A^-1 is a lot worse compared to the scaled version (see code attached):
