No, the version of setup.exe is largely irrelevant.  People are already
confused by the version displayed via setup now.  We are not going to
add to it by treating setup.exe as a separate product.

Btw, if you are running setup.exe enough for this to be an actual
annoyance you probably should investigate the command line parameters
and just let it do its thing automatically.

setup-1.7 --help | less

shows what options are available.
