Me too.  But methinks there already exists such a feature.  Quoting
gcc.info:

`-wrapper'
     Invoke all subcommands under a wrapper program. It takes a single
     comma separated list as an argument, which will be used to invoke
     the wrapper:

          gcc -c t.c -wrapper gdb,--args

     This will invoke all subprograms of gcc under "gdb -args", thus
     cc1 invocation will be "gdb -args cc1 ...".

Cheers,
Ralf
