Thank you Tony (and Greg, and bemused!) - that will work wonderfully, I
think.

Using the information here, I will aim to get my Crestron unit to
connect to port 9090 on my Squeezebox server, and send the following
command every n seconds (maybe 0.2 - 0.5 seconds):

ma:ca:dd:re:ss status 0 0

Then I will check for the string "mode%3Aplay" in the response - if
found, it is playing. I could probably even parse more of the response
and have feedback on what track is playing, which might be handy, and/or
send my own commands.

Using this as a good starting point, I have also found the following,
which I might be able to use if it is up to date enough (Google Code has
been retired since then, unfortunately):
