The best way to sort an array of integers is without a doubt to use the intarray extension, which will do it much, much, much faster than any SQL formulation:

CREATE EXTENSION intarray;

SELECT sort( ARRAY[4,3,2,1] );

A function that works for any array type is:

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION array_sort (ANYARRAY)
RETURNS ANYARRAY LANGUAGE SQL
AS $$
SELECT ARRAY(SELECT unnest($1) ORDER BY 1)
$$;

(I've replaced my version with Pavel's slightly faster one after discussion elsewhere).
