That depends quite a lot on your operating system (which you didn't tell us).

On Linux, I like to do something like
objdump -f $ORACLE_HOME/lib/libclntsh.so

To do it the way Oracle does, you could do something like cat `grep inventory_loc /etc/oraInst.loc|sed -e 's/^.*=//'`/install.platform but then you need to know what the magic ID numbers stand for (I couldn't find a list on Metalink).
