For a reviewer patch it is.

good idea anyway (see #11605 vs #11130).
#11604 was based on #11605 in the hope of (or giving it a chance) getting
it into Sage 4.7.1, such that this bug gets fixed in reasonable time (in
an official release). #11605 was likely to get merged into 4.7.1 because
it is a critical bug, so not basing #11604 on the former would have simply
been stupid.
#11130 has the milestone set to Sage 4.7.2 and currently (officially)
still needs ''work''. (Basing a new spkg on that of #11130 would not have
been necessary since the new PARI version fixes the bug anyway. And even
if it didn't, you claim above it would have been a bad idea to base a new
one on a not yet positively reviewed, as is the case with PARI 2.5.0.p0,
more precisely, it even "needs work" as I mentioned above.)
