Hey, looks like it is in fact in 'vers' resource format:

version
cast result using template "HEXD"
--> {"01018000000003312E3121312E312C204170706C6520436F6D70757465722C20496E632E20313939312D3933"}

version
cast result
--> {version_number:"01", revision_number:"01", revision_stage:"80", build_number:"00", language_integer:0, abbreviated_string:"1.1", get_info_string:"1.1, Apple Computer, Inc. 1991-93"}

tell application "Finder"
version
end tell
cast result
--> {version_number:"07", revision_number:"55", revision_stage:"80", build_number:"00", language_integer:0, abbreviated_string:"7.5.5", get_info_string:"7.5.5, ) Apple Computer, Inc. 1983-96"}


-boo
wishing OS X could do this (c'mon Apple, it would rock)
