isprime(,2) (again, it seems)


Looking back through the dev archives (to Jan this year, but not further
back, apologies if this has been mentioned before then), it appears that
the APRCL in 2.2.5 has a few problems when trying to prove some numbers 
of the form Phi(a,b). 

In particular there are two different failure modes.

1) ***   non invertible matrix in gauss,
   e.g. gp > isprime(subst(polcyclo(16),x,16),2)

2) Digagreement with isprime(,1)
(18:33) gp > isprime(subst(polcyclo(36),x,125),1)
%6 = 
[2 11 1]
...
[5167 2 1]

(18:33) gp > isprime(subst(polcyclo(36),x,125),2)
%7 = 0



Here are the values for 2<=a<=150, 2<=b<=200. As you can see there's a bit
of a pattern to them. Ones with odd b I think are failure (b) above.
