[cfe-dev] Clang isn't finding C++ include dir on Ubuntu

I configured a project via CMake using clang with the -m32 option. I
have Ubuntu 18.04 64 bit installed. I need to compile a library to 32
bit on this platform. Based on the settings I provided to CMake, this
is the command line it is invoking:

/usr/bin/clang++ -m32   -I/home/jamesa/uri/src
-I/home/jamesa/uri/include
-I/home/jamesa/uri/deps/googletest/googletest/include -std=c++11
-stdlib=libc++ -Wall -Werror -MD -MT
test/CMakeFiles/uri_test.dir/uri_test.cpp.o -MF
test/CMakeFiles/uri_test.dir/uri_test.cpp.o.d -o
test/CMakeFiles/uri_test.dir/uri_test.cpp.o -c
/home/jamesa/uri/test/uri_test.cpp


I added the `-v` option at the end to see the system include dirs it
is using (results will be posted at the bottom since it's rather
long). The compilation fails because it can't find <cxxabi.h>, which
on my install of Ubuntu is located here:

$ find /usr/include/ -name cxxabi.h
/usr/include/c++/8/cxxabi.h
/usr/include/c++/7/cxxabi.h

The path `/usr/include/c++/8` is not being added to the system include
paths used by Clang. I'm not sure why. The complete -v output is
below. Can anyone help me figure out what I'm missing? I have the
`gcc-8-multilib:i386` package properly installed on my system.
