I would use mpmath, which (for the one example I tried) seems to be
agreeing with Pari:

sage: import mpmath
sage: mpmath.besselk(5*I, 200)
mpc(real='1.151596925536028e-88', imag='0.0')
sage: mpmath.mp.dps = 50
sage: mpmath.besselk(5*I, 200)
mpc(real='1.1515969255360280546036312473791321981420160724815173e-88', 
imag='0.0')

Try mpmath.besselk? for more info, and see the mpmath documentation on
the web -- it's quite nice.
