They're the same except for Win32 / x64.

I looked at the script some more. It seems that it only loops back to 
try x64 if VS 2014 is installed - i.e. at the end of the :Found_V140 
section it does:
   set SUCCESS = 1
   GOTO START

Since I don't have VS 2014 installed, :TRY_V140 falls through to 
:LOOPEND which does:
   Set SUCCESS = 1
   GOTO DONE

I added:
   set SUCCESS = 1
   GOTO START

at the end of :TRY_V140 and now the script installs the x64 toolsets too.
