Works for me:

===
C:\DevRoots\Boost\master\tools\build\src\tools\vc141helper>cl_path.cmd
14.10 -PathToCompiler
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual
Studio\2017\Community\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.10.25017\bin\HostX86\x86\cl.exe
===

Although giving it an "invalid" version confuses it:

===
C:\DevRoots\Boost\master\tools\build\src\tools\vc141helper>cl_path.cmd 14.1
-PathToCompiler
Cannot index into a null array.
At
C:\DevRoots\Boost\master\tools\build\src\tools\vc141helper\GetCLPath.ps1:30
char:9
+         Write-Output $cls[0].FullName
+         ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo          : InvalidOperation: (:) [], RuntimeException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : NullArray
ECHO is off.
===

Is that what you are doing?
