Cannot help with Pari, but:

Maple's isprime and Mathematica's PrimeQ both say the number is prime.
Maple's isprime is a probabilistic primality test, but there are no known
counter-examples. So if this number is not prime, it would be somewhat of 
an event. I don't know what Mathematica's PrimeQ is?
