c++ - Xcode 4.3 and C++11 include paths

Question

I installed Xcode 4.3 and want to test this C++11 program:

#include <type_traits>

int main()
{
}

However, it doesn't find the type_traits header:

~ $ c++ -o test main.cpp
main.cpp:1:10: fatal error: 'type_traits' file not found
#include <type_traits>
         ^
1 error generated.

It seems that I am using the correct compiler:

~ $ c++ -v
Apple clang version 3.1 (tags/Apple/clang-318.0.45) (based on LLVM 3.1svn)
Target: x86_64-apple-darwin11.3.0
Thread model: posix

I checked the default include paths:

~ $ `c++ --print-prog-name=cc1plus` -v
ignoring nonexistent directory "/usr/include/c++/4.2.1/i686-apple-darwin11"
ignoring nonexistent directory "/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/llvm-gcc-4.2/lib/gcc/i686-apple-darwin11/4.2.1/../../../../i686-apple-darwin11/include"
#include "..." search starts here:
#include <...> search starts here:
 /usr/include/c++/4.2.1
 /usr/include/c++/4.2.1/backward
 /usr/local/include
 /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/llvm-gcc-4.2/lib/gcc/i686-apple-darwin11/4.2.1/include
 /usr/include
 /System/Library/Frameworks (framework directory)
 /Library/Frameworks (framework directory)
End of search list.

Above paths do indeed not contain the type_traits headers. A search command reveals that can be found in two locations:

/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.7.sdk/usr/include/c++/v1/type_traits
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/lib/c++/v1/type_traits

Apparently something is wrong with my compiler defaults. How can I configure my compiler so that it finds the type_traits header in the right location?

Update

Following @sehe's suggestion:

It doesn't seem to look in the Xcode.app bundle at all.

One possible reason is that I installed both Xcode and the "Command line tools for Xcode". The latter installed binaries in the /usr folder.

I just found that the type_traits header can also be found in /usr/include :

~ $ find /usr/include -type f -name type_traits
/usr/include/c++/4.2.1/tr1/type_traits
/usr/include/c++/v1/type_traits

You need:

-std=c++0x

to select C++11. And you need:

-stdlib=libc++

to select libc++. By default, the std::lib that shipped with gcc 4.2 is used, which is pre-C++11.
