I'm not keen on the idea of this being part of a fixit that may destroy well-defined user code. Same for the assumptions about the location of right parens. That code looks equally broken even without multiple `throw` tokens in the stream. Consider:

Had thought about adding paren parsing, but wasn't sure it was needed -- thanks for pointing out that it is. Of course, I'll have to parse from the beginning to do this correctly, but that's not a big deal.

Sure.

Because the user provided a macro. The only reason you would do that is if you want the macro to expand to something different depending on whether or not 'noexcept' is supported.
Perhaps this can be done more elegantly, but the use case for this entire checker was libcxx. It defines _NOEXCEPT as either noexcept or throw() depending on whether or not noexcept is supported. I don't see a good way of doing that, other than removing it completely, so I just reported it without supplying a FixItHint.
