The problem is that with gcc-7 as the default compiler in Debian, this issue always results in glibc and the Linux kernel failing to build from source. For gcc-5 and gcc-6, it was enough to add "extra_cflags += -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks" for glibc, but that no longer works with gcc-7 and the glibc build will always fail. For the kernel, there is no workaround I know of. Sorry, I did not mean to pressure anyone.
