I think you are looking for `WITH ORDINALITY` (in pg 9.4+). For instance 
you could rewrite your first CTE like so:

SELECT  oid as PROOID,
         PRONAME,
         t as PROARGTYPE,
         i,
         PRONAMESPACE,
         PROOWNER
FROM    PG_CATALOG.PG_PROC,
         UNNEST(PROARGTYPES) WITH ORDINALITY AS proargtypes(t, i)
;

Yours,
