it occurs to me that there's really no good answer to this
question, since *all* of the solutions we've posted might
not necessarily be meaningful, such as if you *start* with
an install of 8.0, but do lots of changes and updates.
at that point, is it really 8.0 anymore, regardless of
how you get that info?

a better question might be, why do you need to know this
information, and what effect will it have on what you're trying
to do?
