indeed, TEXROOT is an internal setuptex variable; actually, the only 
thing that setuptex sets up is TEXMF, TEXMFCNF, TEXFORMATS and 
TEXMFCACHE; the rest is nilling interfering variables and a few 
intermedia ones that save typing (TEXOS, TEXROOT)

in the path bases variant, you cannot use TEXOS and TEXROOT since they 
don't exist; you can try TEXMFCACHE=/tmp
