The build-id note (.note.gnu.build-id) is in both the original ELF file
and in the .debug file. The note is also marked as SHF_ALLOC so that it
appears in the executable image, and should be put in the core file when
dumped.

See http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/FeatureBuildId for an overview.

A simple way to get the build-id(s) is through eu-unstrip (part of elfutils).

build-id from an executable, shared library or separate debuginfo file: 
$ eu-unstrip -n -e <exec|.sharedlib|.debug>

build-ids of an executable and all shared libraries from a core file: 
$ eu-unstrip -n --core <corefile>

build-ids of an executable and all shared libraries of a running process: 
$ eu-unstrip -n --pid <pid>

Cheers,

Mark
