If the implementation is already going to require hard coding in our own applications, it probably would make more sense, for each application to just have a menu with a check for updates item. This would then connect to a custom made or standard server program, on each software company's server. An example of this is acrobat reader, or Forte for Java, or Acrobat Reader.

Ofcourse this is not along the lines of the original idea. So unless I don't understand it, I don't think the SIVC engine fits the bill.

It just needs a nice UI.

Another package is SIVC (simple internet version control)

Although I have no idea if a carbonized version exists. It is used e.g. by
Anarchie.
