My cheap and easy way:

I do a "less" on the resultant binary. At the end, one sees lots of
things like:

GCC: (GNU) 2.6.4 snapshot 950518^@^@GCC: (GNU) 2.6.3^@^@

for a really old binary (I think the first number you see is the
compiler that compiled the binary, and the rest are the libraries?)

GCC: (GNU) 2.7.2.3^@^@GCC: (GNU) 2.7.2.3^@

for something more recent,

but

GCC: (GNU) pgcc-2.91.66 19990314 (egcs-1.1.2 release)^@^@GCC: (GNU)
pgcc-2.91.66 19990314 (egcs-1.1.2 release)^@^@GCC: (GNU)
pgcc-2.91.60 19981201 (egcs-1.1.1 release)^^@^@^@^

for the latest stuff.
