I don't think there is something better than inspecting the binaries 
with platform specific tools right now.  Internally, of course, OOo 
knows what "platform" (x86 Linux, x64 Linux, x86 Mac OS X, etc.) it 
is---this is at least needed when filtering out extension material that 
is not appropriate for the given platform.  (Also, the standard ways to 
interact with an OOo installation is either via UNO, which abstracts 
over those platform details, or through extensions, which already 
support platform differences.)
