How do I check which version of GDAL I have and how many?

I have installed the following software:

  • PosgresSQL 9.3.2.3
  • PostGIS 2.1.1.1
  • QGIS 2.0.1 Dufour (this one installed through the OSGeo4w package)
  • QGIS 1.7.0 Wroclaw

I am concerned because I know that all of them somehow operate, or use, or access or read the GDAL library.

Does this mean I must have different versions of GDAL running depending on which one I am using? If I open the OSGeo4W Shell it says GDAL 1.10.1, how can I check the other versions if any?

Perhaps all of them use only the latest one. How and by what means do I check this?
