You can just pass the array itself to the custom tag, rather than passing
its name, then trying to evaluate a reference to the calling page from
inside the custom tag.
<!--- calling page --->
<cfset myarray = ArrayNew(1)>
....
<cf_foo arrayvar="#myarray#">
<!--- inside cf_foo custom tag --->
<cfloop index="i" from="1" to="#ArrayLen(Attributes.arrayvar)#">
....
