Right here.  The entire line will be read in as one arguement.  This, from
what I understand, is not how OS/2, Windows nor DOS pass arguements to
their program, but rather as an array of pointers to strings.

Which arg1 is a NUL, arg2 is the string that the user inputted as
arguments, and arg3 is junk that the program read out of uninitialized
memory.

It will.  Arguements will be parsed correctly.
