I'm using RCS for all my web pages so I have the following in my footer 
(I'll bracket the code with PRE just in case you don't read in text)
<PRE>
<?php
    if (ereg("\?",$REQUEST_URI))
    {
       $temp = explode("?",$REQUEST_URI);
       $file_path = $temp[0];
    }
    else
    {
       $file_path = $REQUEST_URI;
    }
    $temp = explode("/",$file_path);
    if (!(eregi(".htm",end($temp)) || eregi(".php",end($temp))))
    {
       $temp[] = "index.html";
       $file_path = implode("/",$temp);
    }
    $page = array_pop($temp);
    $dir_path = implode("/",$temp);
    $full_dir_path = $DOCUMENT_ROOT.$dir_path;
    $full_file_path = $DOCUMENT_ROOT.$file_path;
    if (file_exists($full_file_path))
    {
       if (is_dir("$full_dir_path/RCS") && 
file_exists("$full_dir_path/RCS/$page,
v"))
       {
          $mod_date = exec ("rlog $full_file_path | grep date: | head -1 
| awk '{
print \$2 }'");
       }
       else
       {
          $mod_date = date ("F d, Y", filemtime($full_file_path));
       }
       print "Last updated: $mod_date";
    }
?>
</PRE>
It's not very elegant, but, then, I don't have a lot of time to tweak 
stuff.  Ergo, if someone has a prettier solution, I'm interested as well.
