Detect loaded CommonControls version

Hi, I am trying to determine if the current OS supports alpha channel, to
know which version of the icons to load. I have written code that detects
Windows XP or later, and it works really well. Except a little detail. If
the manifest file to load Microsoft.Windows.Common-Controls 6 (and enable XP
themes) isn't there on Windows XP, the icons with alpha channel are loaded
but don't appear correctly. Would it be possible to detect the version of
the loaded CommonControls ?

Thanks!
Etienne
