I'm not so sure typeTok is meaningful if it's not preceded by new. I believe in the test cases it's just a (. If we want to bail out here I think it's enough to determine that it's passed to a constructor.

I don't understand. Using git blame I traced those lines back to 23deadb370 and 54b9fa5523. It seems to me like they are there for a reason. Maybe they are unnecessary, but I feel that should be a separate PR.

bool bail = !typeTok->isStandardType() &&
(!typeTok->valueType() ||
(typeTok->valueType()->type < ValueType::Type::SMART_POINTER &&
typeTok->valueType()->type != ValueType::Type::POD)) &&
!mSettings.library.detectContainerOrIterator(typeTok) &&
!mSettings.library.podtype(typeTok->expressionString());
if (bail && typeTok->type() && typeTok->type()->classScope &&
typeTok->type()->classScope->numConstructors == 0 &&
typeTok->type()->classScope->getDestructor() == nullptr) {
bail = false;
}
if (bail)
continue;
if (isReopenStandardStream(arg))
