Comment:

 My first thought was to check if the current theme supports the post
 format being passed in to `set_post_format()`.  This way, if a remote
 system tries to create a post with an unregistered post format, it won't
 add clutter to the database.  To achieve this, I had to tweak
 `current_theme_supports()` to add a check for `post-formats`.

 This should fix both the XML-RPC issue and any potential issues raised by
 other systems (i.e. plug-ins) trying to add unsupported post formats.

 The patch is as yet untested ... but I wanted to make good on my promise
 to get a patch posted tonight :-)
