Having `MicrosoftExt` implicitly enable `DeclSpecKeyword` (just as borland mode enables it as well). I suppose that it would fail anyways as `Tok.is(tok::identifier)` would fail.
That's a good point, I've corrected.

Yes, but it could also lead to a rejecting code that we used to accept and properly handle when __declspec is an identifier rather than a keyword. e.g.,
```
struct __declspec {};
__declspec some_func(void);
```
By looking for the paren, we run less risk of breaking working code, even if that code abuses the implementation namespace (after all, __declspec it not a keyword in this scenario).
