It doesn't say it's a beta, the Nullsoft Winamp page in Preferences says 'v2.90(x86) - Apr 1 2003' and the version history looks OK.

Is there any other way of telling?

For others it may be great... but for me it works like shite, I had to remove it and trace back to 2.81.
Maybe it's just my puter, but this one was a horror show- not as bad as Winamp 3, but crappy, nonetheless.

Annoyingly choppy sound output, no matter what I playback- like playing a CD full of fingerprints after eating chocolate... :p Same taste with antivirus shut down- so something must be broken at least regarding my sound drivers, as 2.81 works just great.
