subversion/bindings/swig/include/svn_containers.swg defines a typemap
for "const apr_array_header_t *" parameters:

    %typemap(in) const apr_array_header_t *STRINGLIST {
        $1 = svn_swig_pl_strings_to_array($input,
                                                                 _global_pool);
    }
    %typemap(in) const apr_array_header_t *STRINGLIST_MAY_BE_NULL {
        $1 = SvOK($input) ? svn_swig_pl_strings_to_array(
            $input, _global_pool) : NULL;
    }

svn_swig_pl_strings_to_array (via svn_swig_pl_to_array), in
subversion/bindings/swig/perl/libsvn_swig_perl/swigutil_pl.c, handles
ensuring an apr_array_header_t is passed in to Subversion's APIs.

    static apr_array_header_t *svn_swig_pl_to_array(SV *source,
                                                    pl_element_converter_t cv,
                                                    void *ctx, apr_pool_t *pool)
    {
    ...
        } else if (SvOK(source)) {
            targlen = 1;
            temp = apr_array_make(pool, targlen, sizeof(const char *));
            temp->nelts = targlen;
            APR_ARRAY_IDX(temp, 0, const char *) = cv(source, ctx, pool);
        } else {
