weird, since this works too

m3=# prepare myplan(mytype[]) as SELECT * FROM mytypearraryfunc(1,$1);
PREPARE
m3=# execute myplan(ARRAY[
m3(#                 ROW(10, '{1,2,3}','{7,8,9}')::mytype,
m3(#                 ROW(11, '{1}','{3,4,5,6,7}')::mytype,
m3(#                 ROW(10, '{}','{7}')::mytype
m3(#         ]);
 status | file_id | delete_heirs |  add_heirs
--------+---------+--------------+-------------
    200 |      10 | {1,2,3}      | {7,8,9}
    200 |      11 | {1}          | {3,4,5,6,7}
    200 |      10 | {}           | {7}
