This comment suggests that the test actually uses decltype on purpose.

Seems to be exercising the FLAG_SHADOW bits:

...
    {"__typeof__", TYPEOF, OP_TYPEOF, 0 },
    {"__typeof", TYPEOF, OP_TYPEOF, 0 },
    {"typeof", TYPEOF, OP_TYPEOF, FLAG_SHADOW },
    {"__decltype", DECLTYPE, OP_DECLTYPE, FLAG_CXX },
    {"decltype", DECLTYPE, OP_DECLTYPE, FLAG_CXX | FLAG_SHADOW },
...

/* This is used to associate some attributes with a token.  */

enum token_flag
{
...
  /* If this bit is set, the token is conditional: if there is a
     symbol of the same name, then the token is a symbol; otherwise,
     the token is a keyword.  */

  FLAG_SHADOW = 2
};

So perhaps a better fix is to move that particular test to a
separate testcase that force-compiles with -std=c++03.

Adding Tromey, who wrote the test initially.

Thanks,
