This is not the right way to do this, you must get the binary .deb for
arm on your PC first (you can use apt-file or go get it on
packages.d.o).

Then, use dpkg-cross:

dpkg-cross -a arm -b libstdc++*-dev-*_arm.deb

You'll get an arch indep package, just install it on your PC and
you'll get libstdc++ headers in /usr/arm-linux-gnu, your
cross-compiler should be able to find them.
