Yes, many if not most of the AIX downloads will work under PASE. There are ones that simply don't make sense, like the ones that help with hardware. Over time I've added several of them.

Anybody know if it is possible to upgrade the bash version on IBM i?

I don't have much experience with PASE, but the following blog entry:

http://prefetch.net/blog/index.php/2012/07/10/installing-bash-on-an-aix-7-1-server/

suggests downloading the AIX Toolbox for Linux:

If you can install bash under AIX, should you be able to install it under PASE?
