How can I figure out whether a value an "astring" or an "astring_list" ?

http://src.opensolaris.org./source/xref/onnv/onnv-gate/usr/src/cmd/cmd-inet/usr.lib/mdnsd/multicast.xml#111
defines the "domain" property like this:
-- snip --
111 <property name='domain' type='astring'>
112     <astring_list>
113             <value_node value='local'/>
114             <value_node value='254.169.in-addr.arpa'/>
115             <value_node value='8.e.f.ip6.arpa'/>
116             <value_node value='9.e.f.ip6.arpa'/>
117             <value_node value='a.e.f.ip6.arpa'/>
118             <value_node value='b.e.f.ip6.arpa'/>
119     </astring_list>
120 </property>
-- snip --

However when I "crawl" the SMF properly tree using my "svcproptree1.ksh"
script
(http://svn.genunix.org/repos/on/branches/ksh93/gisburn/scripts/svcproptree1.ksh
; it may require the ksh93-integration update1 version of ksh93) I am
getting the following output:
-- snip --
$ svcproptree1.ksh "network/dns/multicast:default" list | grep
"mdns.*domain"
#loading completed.
#parsing completed.
svc.proptree[network/dns/multicast:default/].properties[nss_mdns_config/domain].datatype=astring
svc.proptree[network/dns/multicast:default/].properties[nss_mdns_config/domain].value='local
b.e.f.ip6.arpa a.e.f.ip6.arpa 9.e.f.ip6.arpa 8.e.f.ip6.arpa
254.169.in-addr.arpa'
#done.
-- snip --
... which means the application doesn't see whether the value is a
normal "astring" or an array of one or multiple "astring" values...
