    I wonder how ADK 8.1's dism is handling and extracting updates in this situation

    It seams that ADK 8.1's dism has an included expand version.
    You can see the expanded cab in the tmp folder with all files included.
    At the moment that's only a small issue, but if there will be more GDR/LDR updates released, the only way to update a DVD would be to do the job on a Win8.1 system.

    Note: This does not happen to all updates. Fortunately 2898871 is working also with the expand version of win7.

    Would HFExtract.exe be an answer to your problem?

    I don't think it will work, because it uses current system api's and dll's
    i tried similar tool "Package Inspector", didn't work

    Why not try the DLL's from ADK instead of Windows, maybe the Win8 dependencies are not compatible with Win7 (but the ones in ADK may be)

    Which DLL's exactly? i didn't notice any msdelta or dpx in ADK install folder

    but there are some "downlevel" DLL's like api-ms-win-user32-l1-1-0.dll

    KB2921501 & KB2921502 are back online
