Whether a token is a keyword depends on --std (TokenList::isKeyword() uses Keywords::getAll(standards.cpp)). With --std=c++03, decltype is a plain name, so this now gives a false syntaxError:

$ cppcheck --std=c++03 dt.cpp
dt.cpp:3:12: error: syntax error [syntaxError]
decltype(s)::type i;

The old code avoided this with prev->str() != "decltype". Maybe keep that, e.g. && !prev->isKeyword() && prev->str() != "decltype".

if (prev->isUpperCaseName())
unknownMacroError(prev);
else
syntaxError(tok);

In this project tests usually reference the ticket number, e.g. // #15079.

" (void)::CloseHandle(h);\n"
" int i = (int)::GetTickCount();\n"
" g((unsigned char)::toupper(i));\n"
"}\n"));
ASSERT_NO_THROW(tokenizeAndStringify("int f(int i) {\n"
" return (int)::abs(i);\n"

ASSERT_NO_THROW(tokenizeAndStringify("namespace N { struct T {}; }\n"
"void f(void* p) {\n"
" new (p) ::N::T;\n"

ASSERT_NO_THROW(tokenizeAndStringify("struct S { using type = int; };\n"
"S s;\n"
"decltype(s)::type i;\n"));
