Yes, but Michael A. Chases clean_setup.pl can! I allowed myself to add a 
new option to clean_setup.pl, it exports the list of missing files to a 
file. Then you can use wget to get all the missing files.

I attached the modified clean_setup.pl plus a shell scrip to get the 
missing files from a mirror. You have to modify the getmissing.sh to 
choose your mirror and your target download directory. The directory and 
both files must exist the same directory as your setup.exe. Just a quick 
hack, I guarantee nothing!

Bye
