Oleg,

It has taken some time, but the developers are going to make the recommended
changes that you and Ortwin suggested.

One question that one of our developers had was where to put the single
instance of MultiThreadedHttpConnectionManager to be able to use it across
threads from an EJB?
He will use the ServletContext and ServletContextListener for the
applications but isn't sure for EJBs.

Believe it or not, once the developers saw that they had to upgrade, they
decided to go to the latest version themselves and only have to change the
code once so they are working to convert it now to 4.0.1.  I found the other
application having problems was running on the 2.0.2 version of HttpClient
but that will be fixed very soon.
