Comment(by ryan):

 The latest in the SimplePie repo seems to be doing the same thing still.

 http://github.com/rmccue/SimplePie/blob/master/simplepie.inc

 Now that the check is moved down, it seems fine to me. How many hosts will
 have neither extension?  We either need to fix it this way, add some
 validation that we probably don't have time for, or cache the false
 returns and live with ugly errors.
