Function would look like this:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION f_intarr_to_set(integer[])
RETURNS SETOF integer AS
$BODY$
BEGIN
FOR i IN array_lower($1,1) .. array_upper($1,1) LOOP
RETURN NEXT $1[i];
END LOOP;
END;
$BODY$
LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';
SELECT * FROM f_intarr_to_set('{1,3,5,7,9,321}');
But I think I like Kristo´s query even better. :)

TIP 9: In versions below 8.0, the planner will ignore your desire to
choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not
match
