Dimitre,

If you're dealing with Bzip2-compressed TAR files, then just use the "j" 
compression option with TAR. Otherwise, the bzip2 package (i.e., bzip2, 
bunzip2 and bzip2recover) _is_ included in Cygwin. It is in the "Utils" 
installer category.

Do a full installation--things go more smoothly all around if you do.
