This is a terrible work-around, but for  anyone finding themselves here who just want to get plist arrays working in a plugin without requiring users to manually edit their own -Info.plist, you can clobber the array with a simple one-dimensional value, and then re-clobber it with the proper array.

ie, this works without adding duplicate UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait keys each time:

        <config-file target="*-Info.plist" parent="UISupportedInterfaceOrientations~ipad">
            <string>CLOBBER</string>
        </config-file>
        <config-file target="*-Info.plist" parent="UISupportedInterfaceOrientations~ipad">
            <array>
                <string>UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait</string>
            </array>
        </config-file>

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-4731
>             Project: Apache Cordova
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Plugman
>    Affects Versions: 3.0.0
>         Environment: macosx
>            Reporter: Tim Croydon
>            Assignee: Braden Shepherdson
>            Priority: Minor
>
> I have the following in the plugin.xml file for a custom plugin:
> {code}
> <platform name="ios">
>     <config-file target="*-Info.plist" parent="UIBackgroundModes">
>         <array>
>            <string>location</string>
>            <string>voip</string>
>         </array>
>     </config-file>        
> </platform>
> {code}
> However, this does not generate the expected entries in the .plist file. I get:
> {code}
> <key>UIBackgroundModes</key>
> <array>
>     <string>location</string>
>     <string>voip</string>
>     <string>location</string>
>     <string>voip</string>
> </array>
> {code}
> i.e. elements are repeated. I have tried with a single element in the source plugin.xml and get the same result.
> I am using the cordova CLI to manage my plugins, platforms and build.
> (p.s. I'm new to Cordova so apologies if this is filed under the incorrect component)
