You can also create your own helper tool compiled with GC support and, that just preflight the bundle you pass as argument and return the result.
It's a little more works, but it's cleaner too.

You want to look at the __image_info section in the __OBJC segment:

struct objc_image_info  {
uint32_t        version;        // initially 0
uint32_t        flags;
};

#define OBJC_IMAGE_SUPPORTS_GC   2
#define OBJC_IMAGE_GC_ONLY       4

Thanks for the heads-up Chris! Thanks to your tip, I settled for a rather cheap solution that works just fine for me:

/usr/bin/otool -o $PATH | grep -q -2 '__OBJC.__image_info' | grep GC

:)

I'm not 100% sure that otool's installed without the BSD subsystem being available, but I think that's mandatory now with Leopard. The GC check is just used for displaying some extra informative text in a sheet (which plugins aren't GC supported), so if anything fails, it's not a disaster. I figured it'd be easier than trying to find some libraries to read in the Mach-O format... considering the tininess of the problem, it was far too much effort!
