Seems to work for me ... what PG version are you using?
regression=# create function parseString() returns varchar[] as
regression-# 'begin return \'{abc,def,ghi}\'; end' language plpgsql;
CREATE FUNCTION
regression=# select parseString();
parsestring
---------------
{abc,def,ghi}
(1 row)
regression=# create function foo() returns varchar as '
regression'# declare
regression'# results varchar[];
regression'# tmpv varchar;
regression'# begin
regression'# results := parseString();
regression'# tmpv := results[1];
regression'# RAISE NOTICE '' tmpv = % '',tmpv;
regression'# return tmpv;
regression'# end' language plpgsql;
CREATE FUNCTION
regression=# select foo();
NOTICE: tmpv = abc
foo
-----
abc
(1 row)
