Bug#730857: clang-3.4: Unable to build anything on i386 ('bits/c++config.h' file not found)

[Hans Joachim Desserud]

Package: clang-3.4
Version: 1:3.4~+rc1-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

I recently noticed clang-3.4 had been packaged and wanted to try it out,
but was unable to compile anything with it on my i386 system.

Prior to the install, clang-3.3 worked fine, and the same file builds without
problems with GCC. See below for detailed output.

I believe this might be http://bugs.debian.org/697127 which has reappeared.
Let me know if you need any additional information.

$ cat hello.cpp 
#include <iostream>

int main() {
std::cout << "hello";
}
$ g++ hello.cpp
