Found in GCC 6's changelog (http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-6/changes.html):

> Value range propagation now assumes that the this pointer of C++ member
> functions is non-null. This eliminates common null pointer checks but also
> breaks some non-conforming code-bases (such as Qt-5, Chromium, KDevelop).
> As a temporary work-around -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks can be used.
> Wrong code can be identified by using -fsanitize=undefined.

Are we free of such mistakes? Or do we need to enable -fno-delete-null-
pointer-checks?
