We were discussing this one on irc while it was presumably waiting in the
moderation queue, and I suggested to the poster an alternative patch that
allowed empty arrays to actually be treated as empty (your version will
error out on int_array_enum('{}') rather than producing 0 rows, which seems
unhelpful). I would suggest changing your test from != 1 to > 1, and adding
the moral equivalent of:

--- int_aggregate.c.orig        Fri Apr 22 11:37:09 2005
+++ int_aggregate.c     Fri Apr 22 11:44:34 2005

                if (pc->flags & TOASTED)

(that test could be moved into the setup phase, of course)
