This turned out to be much easier than I'd imagined. All I had to do was run
aptitude install libc6=2.13-38+deb7u4
...and answer a couple of straightforward questions on how to handle

After downgrading libc6, the installation of g++ went without a hitch.
And all was clarity and reason once more...
