Yes. Works fine.  I took my build of setup.exe (from Sunday's CVS), ran
it once to "download to local directory" the updated bash-2.05 tar.gz. 
Then, I gunzip'ed and bzip2'ed it.  Finally, I ran the setup.exe again
to "install from local directory" and it worked fine on the .tar.bz2 
file.  BTW, this setup.exe reports "version 2.45" if that helps.
