[Distutils] Way to ask distutils what version of a package is installed?

[ray terrill]

Is there a way to ask distutils what version of a package is currently
installed?  I provided the version number when creating my setup.py, but
when this is deployed over 800+ clients, I'd like to have a way to
interrogate the system to determine which version is installed.

Thanks,
-Ray
