Domains are like wine, they get better with time.
Might be worth it - lot of backlinks? Is the PR real?
Another factor is if it's been abused in the past, it takes quite a bit of time to rehabilitate a name. As one example, I have had one name for over two years that used to be a porn name, I've used it for a couple non-porn topics since I got it, and a lot of other sites still think it's a porn site. I may just have to give in and start serving midget porn on it.
If the name fits your project and has some positive history, definitely ++.

IMO - That's not bad for the age and valid PR4.

domaintools dot com has some pretty good reporting about a name's history
archive dot org is your friend when you want to see what a site used to look like
xinureturns dot com used to be a good analysis site but has been flaky the last couple days for me any way; maybe it's just temporary glitches
and what some others have said in this thread, especially about making it sure it's not been an abused name - I honestly don't know how long some services hold a grudge against certain names....
