I thought something like this might work:

If the theme uses the_guid() or get_the_guid() or $post->guid
anywhere, and it also doesn't include the use of the add_feed()
function anywhere else in the theme, then it's doing-it-wrong.

add_feed would be the correct way to add feeds, and the only place
using the guid makes sense is in a feed.
