No. The current library functions are forward compatible for the entire 1.x range. The working copy storage is considered to be an internal artifact, meaning you're supposed to use the libraries (e.g. through the python bindings) to access the working copy data. Why do you want to know if a working copy changed its storage type? Bye, Erik.
