Perhaps JohnD will make full reply the above.
But I noticed that file name is not correct.
On MinGW+msys site, the corresponding file name is
bash-3.1.17-4-msys-1.0.16-src.tar.lzma but not
bash-3.1.17-4-msys-1.0.13-src.tar.lzma on
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/MSYS/Base/bash/bash-3.1.17-4/.
perhaps this is an origin of the error.
Unfortunately I am writing from my smart phone I cannot help you further now.
