http://gerrit.cloudera.org:8080/#/c/6767/1/be/src/runtime/string-value.inline.h
File be/src/runtime/string-value.inline.h:

Line 59:   const int result = len > 0 ? strncmp(s1, s2, len) : 0;
> Example backtrace:
How about a short comment explaining strncmp() is undefined for nullptrs.  Some 
day, we may change things at a lower level so that even when str.len == 0, we 
have a non-null str.ptr, so we can avoid these checks. And so it would be good 
to leave a hint that this branch can be removed at that time.
