Just piping up from the peanut gallery, there isn't much engineering reason to roll steerer threads anyway, right? The threads only need to hold the torque of the top nut, so they don't need to be exceptionally strong or deep into the metal of the steerer. I assume (but am always open to correction) that cutting is an easier/simpler method than rolling.
