Hi,
try the following script (4 lines) to get a list of all the effective options 
for each of gcc and g++.
Replace with your compiler's path and names.
The results will be in the two *.t files:

#!/bin/bash
CCDIR=/sw/src/cross/INSTALL_DIR
echo "int main() { return 0; }" | $CCDIR/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc -Q -v -x 
c   -Ofast -  >cpl_options_gcc.t 2>&1 ; rm a.out
echo "int main() { return 0; }" | $CCDIR/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-g++ -Q -v -x 
c++ -Ofast -  >cpl_options_g++.t 2>&1 ; rm a.out
