Since nobody else answered this I fear the answer is as I expect: the
rollout command is not linked to the analysis in the CL interface at
present. That goes for the python interface as well.

No, adding such a function is very easy, but that probably wont help you.

dir(gnubg)

under python, will tell you what commands are implemented:

>>> dir(gnubg)
['__doc__', '__name__', 'board', 'cfevaluate', 'command', 'cubeinfo',
'eq2mwc', 'errorrating', 'evalcontext', 'evaluate', 'findbestmove',
'luckrating', 'match', 'matchchecksum', 'met', 'mwc2eq', 'navigate',
'nextturn', 'positionbearoff', 'positionfrombearoff',
'positionfromid', 'positionfromkey', 'positionid', 'positionkey']
>>>
