Besides the fact that no one can predict when a site will be spidered or indexed, you have to ask if your link on the PR5 site is able to be indexed?
Check and make sure that something wasn't done that prevents the link from being indexed.
Here are a few things to look for:
1. a straight href link info
This is the preferred way to have a link, there are others, but this is the most common. Javascript or hidden links can't be spidered.
I set up a link exchange with a site recently. As always I check my links here and there, but the link exchange wasn't showing up to my benefit. So I went to the page where my link appeared and started checking things out.
After the original exchange (which was done with a standard link), the owner of the other site changed it to a link (commonly referred to as a hidden or dynamic link) which is not indexable. So I removed their link.
2. Does the page your link is on have a robots meta tag that says "noindex" or "nofollow?"
If it does this is bad. The first one prevents the page from being spidered, the second one may prevent your link from being picked up for future indexing on that site.
3. Does the site exclude the page from indexing with the robots.txt or .htaccess files? (This can be harder to figure out).
One easy way is to check and see if the other links on that page are showing as backlinks to that site.
You can also check with the SE's and see if your link is showing as a backlink. Obviously Google isn't, but what about Altavista, Alltheweb, and others? If the link is showing as a backlink there, it will eventually with Google, you just have to give it time.
