The random() of PARI/GP uses linear congruence! It is not sufficiently random.

So if you use this for generation of invertible matrices by (repeated) test
4
of rank, it may run into an infinite loop. The random function of the system
5
kernel has no such problem.

Now it is better to use slib scripts to do things like generation of random

invertible matrices.
