Ahh yep, the reason reversing the check did not fix it is order of
operations. I had this fixed, but I had some unrelated changes in my
tree. So I manually git add(ed) the plperl files so I could use git
diff --cached to make the diff.  Then I fixed this issue, but forgot
to git-add the changes :(.  That explains why make installcheck worked
for me, but the diff I made was broken.

If you add some parens around ref it should work:
....
        if ref($arg) !~ /ARRAY/;

btw the next version I plan on posting will check more explicitly:
        if ref($arg) !~ /^(?:ARRAY|PostgreSQL::InServer::ARRAY)$/;
