The installer's version in ARMedslack's installer is identical to the
version you get in the fully installed OS.

ARMedslack's installpkg differs from x86's because ARMedslack's is patched
for several speed improvements on ARM.
Both versions support -root.

I unpacked the installer for -current and it supports -root.  It has to anyway as this is
how the installer installs the packages!

I've got no idea what you're looking at :-)
