Given:
CREATE DOMAIN int_array AS int[];
The operator [] works fine in 4.1beta1:
SELECT (ARRAY[1,2,3]::int_array)[1];
proving that int_array is an array type with element type int.
It is inconsistent that other array functions and operators don't work.

E.1.2.2. Casting
* Tighten casting checks for domains based on arrays (Tom Lane)
When a domain is based on an array type,..., such a domain type
is no longer allowed to match an anyarray parameter of a
polymorphic function, except by explicitly down
