getElementsByClassName is defined to take an array of strings as argument. What exactly is an array? A native ECMAScript array, or anything with a 'length' property and the properties '0' -> length-1? Is a DOMTokenList an "array" that can be passed to gEBCN?

It could be defined to accept either a space separated string or an array. Using the [Overloads] extended attributed defined in the Language Bindings for DOM Specifications draft [1], it could be defined like this:

NodeList getElementsByClassName(in DOMString classNames);
[Overloads=getElementsByClassName]
     NodeList getElementsByClassNameArray(in DOMString[] classNames);

For ECMAScript, that effectively means that getElementsByClassName() can be called with either a space separated string of class names or an array.
