Nope. There is no such thing at the moment.

Note that most of the time MapServer itself doesn't even know which
version of a given library it is using, simply because the library
doesn't tell you that.

Your best bet for now if you're on Linux would be to use "ldd mapserv"
which will list you the shared libs that your binary was linked with...
and then for each lib you browse your system to try to figure the version.
