That seems pretty simple:

zstyle :completion::complete:gcc:option-o-1: file-patterns \
    "^*.(c|h|cc|C|cxx|i)(-.) *.(c|cc|C|cxx)(N\:r)"

Interesting tidbit, you have to backslash the colon there because
_files is parsing this in pattern:tag format, and it's not clever
about parens.

If we think this is useful enough to fold in to the default (pardon
likely line wrapping by gmail):
