I'm pretty sure there is; I'll go find it.
But we do want to keep some of the built-in defines. for example, -x assembler-with-cpp turns on __ASSEMBLY__ or similar, which headers can use to determine whether to only set up #defines, or also C-oriented stuff like types/prototypes. So, at least that one would need to be explicitly re-defined.
