Try elfutils:

# eu-readelf -n /lib64/libc.so.6
Note section [ 1] '.note.gnu.build-id' of 36 bytes at offset 0x270:
  Owner          Data size  Type
  GNU                   20  GNU_BUILD_ID
    Build ID: ec8dd400904ddfcac8b1c343263a790f977159dc
[...]

# eu-unstrip -n -e /lib64/libc.so.6
0x3979600000+0x36d868 ec8dd400904ddfcac8b1c343263a790f977159dc@0x3979600280 /lib64/libc.so.6 /usr/lib/debug/lib64/libc-2.10.1.so.debug

From binutils you can use objdump:

# objdump -s -j .note.gnu.build-id /lib64/libc.so.6 
[...]
Contents of section .note.gnu.build-id:
 3979600270 04000000 14000000 03000000 474e5500  ............GNU.

 3979600280 ec8dd400 904ddfca c8b1c343 263a790f  .....M.....C&:y.
