COMMENTS
Conjecture: a(n) > 0 for all n > 0.
See also A237614 for the least k > 0 with pi(k*n) divisible by n.
EXAMPLE
a(6) = 1 since pi(11*6) = 3*6 with 11 < prime(6) = 13.
a(19) = 1 since pi(33*19) = 6*19 with 33 < prime(19) = 67.
a(759) = 1 since pi(2559*759) = 191*759 with 2559 < prime(759) = 5783.
