I'm fairly sure all those digits are correct.  I've computed the
finite integrals and the sum out to the point where they are
tracking one another consistently within about 10^-14.
For instance, the sum in question computed over the primes from
2^31 to 2^32 is:

   0.0000000004547153708405386984

And the integral over the same range computes to:

   0.0000000004547134182096031795
