Try this:

    zstyle -e ':completion:*:*:ssh:*:my-accounts' users-hosts \
	'[[ -f ~/.ssh/config && $key = hosts ]] && key=my_hosts reply=()'

You can then either define the function _my_hosts which will be called to
add the host completions, or _ssh_hosts will fall through to the code that
reads the .ssh/config files.
