Hm. I would argue that it should have rejected CAST(NULL AS ANYARRAY). That's a pseudotype and so there should never be an actual value of that type, not even a null value.
I'm a little confused about what you mean here. I thought reject was exactly what's happening; normally you'd get "ERROR: return type anyarray is not supported for SQL functions".
If you mean specifically to forbid CAST(NULL AS ANYARRAY) in general then I'd like to point out that there are columns of type anyarray, at least pg_catalog.pg_statistic.stavalues1 is, so the cast is not the only way to trigger this.
