This variant raises an error when a divisor is found:

Code:

«
  IF DUP 2 MOD
  THEN → n
    «
      IFERR 3 n √
        FOR d
          IF n d MOD NOT
          THEN 0 DOERR
          END
          2
        STEP
      THEN 0
      ELSE 1
      END
    »
  ELSE NOT
  END
»

My hope is that using a FOR-loop is both faster and easier to understand.

Really faster and easier to read: 86 seconds instead of 108 seconds on the 48GX (DOERR doesn’t belong in the 28S catalog).
