What about reading the gcc release notes?

From https://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."

I got this via https://blog.fefe.de/?ts=a9de792d (in german, unfortunately). 
So the rant there is for a limited audience...

Yours,

Jürgen
