Try with gcc-2.95.2:

	echo '#include <String.h>' | gcc -x c++ -E - | less
       echo '#include <string.h>' | gcc -x c++ -E - | less

and in first case You'll get lang/cxx/_String.h and in second 
include/string.h (unless there is some installation problem)
as filename translation rules are specified in files with name 
header.gcc (used when command line option -remap is specified
for cpp.exe)

However I recommend use <string> instead of libg++ String class
