It seems you are not running in extended mode, which is required for
\XeTeXpicfile to be recognized. Here's what I'm getting:

According to XeTeX-notes.tex, regarding \XeTeXpicfile and \XeTeXpdffile:

I did do nothing special to have the extended mode activated, I only
used the .pkg package for Apple Installer. Did you perform a custom
install (via Fink or DarwinPorts or from TeXLive)?
