There appears to be no way to get the HTTP version the server used

I think the opposite question is what we'd like an answer to. So far
I haven't seen any requests for that functionality at all.
Well, the reason I came across it (as you may be able to guess
yourself) is writing a test suite for HTTP parsing, and checking that
the parsed version is what is sent. However, a more "common" reason I
can see is if you are wanting to do something that can only be done
with an HTTP/1.1 server and not an HTTP/1.0 one (as sending some such
requests to an HTTP/1.0 server is non-conforming).
