 I mentioned earlier [comment:47 wrapping in a function_exists check is
 probably the wrong way to go here].

 getting a URL to hit? I thought it was clever, just perhaps deserved a
 fallback.

 If we can count on a 404 page with the x-pingback header, checking the
 Hello World post that may or may not exist seems unnecessary.
