You want to look at the __image_info section in the __OBJC segment:
struct objc_image_info {
uint32_t version; // initially 0

#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!
