I wasn't finding getcategorychildren() in WP 2.8.4, so I did:

function insubcategory( $catid ) { $subcats = gettermchildren( $catid, 'category' ); if ( $subcats && !iswperror( $subcats ) ) { foreach( $subcats as $childcategory ) { if( incategory($childcategory) ) { return true; } } } return false; }
