```suggestion
         "empty 'throw' outside a catch block with no operand triggers 'std::terminate()'");
```

According to the standard this always happens, and the check is only enabled if exceptions are enabled, so I think the message should reflect this too.
>[N4917 7.6.18 4] If no exception is presently being handled, evaluating a throw-expression with no operand calls std::
terminate() (14.6.2).
