I don't have a machine to test in the devel version, but what I might suggest is to disconnect the network cable then run the update install - to simulate a connection problem to Macromedia's servers. The fact their servers weren't responding at the time isn't the bug - the fact the installer refused to give up after so many timeouts is a problem.
