http://www.varlena.com/GeneralBits/109.php might provide some useful
insights. I also recall seeing something about sum operators for arrays,
but I can't recall where.

Uhm... please don't tell me that you're using 0 in place of NULL...
You might be able to greatly simplify that by use of ANY; you'd need to
ditch elements 1-19 though:
... WHERE NOT ANY(array) = 0
