In Cabal we have two versions:
usualConvenientVersion :: FilePath -> [String] -> IO String
moreGeneralVersion :: FilePath -> [String] -> IO (String, ExitCode)
I have written those two functions perhaps twenty times, with the semantics that Duncan describes, in maybe four different languages. It would indeed be very nice to have them in the standard toolbox :-)
