Not sure about standard ways, but here's one ugly way:

   % cat ugly.c
   #if OCAML_MAJOR == 3 && OCAML_MINOR == 12
     Hello 3.12 world
   #else
     Hello non-3.12 world
   #endif

   % ocamlc -version
   3.12.1+dev4 (2010-09-03)

   % ocamlc \
       -ccopt -DOCAML_MAJOR=`ocamlc -version | cut -d'.' -f1` \
       -ccopt -DOCAML_MINOR=`ocamlc -version | cut -d'.' -f2` \
       -ccopt -E \
       ugly.c
   # 1 "ugly.c"
   # 1 "<built-in>"
   # 1 "<command-line>"
   # 1 "ugly.c"

     Hello 3.12 world


(Drop the -ccopt -E option when you use it, obviously.)
