I've never used Metal C, but for the first problem (undeclared __MEMSET), I
would look to see if there's a string.h that can be used. That's normally
where memcmp is defined.
As for the runtime problem, I'd guess it had something to do with using
'sizeof' incorrectly. It looks as if you are compiling 64-bit which would
mean that 'sizeof(xarg)' is going to be 8. If you replace all the sizeofs
with strlens, I think you'd see it work.
