I assume from your comments above that you use something akin to 
install-log.  If so, this is a very simple addition.  Before moving your 
installed files log to the final destination, grep -R across the 
destination directory for each file in the temporary log file, append 
something useful, say "\(M\)" for modified, to the line if you find it 
already installed. :-)  When I get around to finishing my packaging 
scripts...
