            Performs an "exclusive-or" of the two sets, keeping only the elements that
            are in one of the sets, but not in both.  The original sets are not modified
            during this operation.  The result set is a <code>Clone()</code> of one of the sets
            (<code>a</code> if it is not <code>null</code>) containing
            the elements from the exclusive-or operation.
