Not easily.

The source code for Apache HttpClient is integrated into the overall
Android git repo system:

http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/external/apache-http.git;a=summary

They just imported the source code, without any sort of RELEASE file.
The quick peek I took at some of the commit log entries does not
indicate which version they have.

On the other hand, since the source is there, you can probably track
major changes by looking for classes introduced in a release. So, if
HttpClient 4.0 added some class, and HttpClient-in-Android is missing
said class, then HttpClient-in-Android isn't on 4.0.

Anybody know a good way to discern which HttpClient is in git?

It is conceivable, though unlikely, that an in-APK edition of HttpClient
would supercede the system libraries.

If you are willing to build your own firmware, you can try replacing
HttpClient, but you might have to make changes to any other code that
uses the older version, if there are API differences, etc.

That I can't help you on...

Please file your problem, and the suggestion of the HttpClient 4.0
upgrade, in http://b.android.com, if you haven't already.
