Have you considered using the jboss cli instead for changing the logging level?
e.g. jboss-cli.sh -c '/subsystem=logging/logger=org.apache.http:change-log-level(level=DEBUG)' This is a runtime change and take effect immediately.

JBoss is using that bridge, this is the content in commons logging's module.xml <module-alias xmlns="urn:jboss:module:1.1" name="org.apache.commons.logging" target-name="org.slf4j.jcl-over-slf4j"/> I was able to debug the httpclient code, and see "org.slf4j.impl.Slf4jLogger" is created, but the handler/appender is always coming from JBoss's standalone.xml, instead of our own log4j.xml.
