In other words, you want to use a set of command-line options that are
supported by (some versions of) some compiler and hope that other versions
of said compiler and other compilers will simply ignore those that don't
apply? Hoping that no option has different and conflicting semantics?
If that's the case, your build process sounds quite broken.
