Typically the init.d script does various system specific things when 
invoking a program - for example on a Debian based system it may well 
pull in options from /etc/default/<programname> and pass then as 
command line arguments. If there is a chroot option, then most likely 
that is being handled by the script OR the previous version was a 
distro-specific one with some modifications.

You'll need to look through the script to find out what it's doing I'm afraid.
