Hi, I don't think anyone is working on that yet. See https://gcc.gnu.org/contribute.html for some prerequisites to contributing significant changes to GCC. I don't know the status of the static analysis tool the Microsoft were planning to release, which would do a lot of the checking. To incorporate the checks into GCC would probably involve changes to both the C++ front-end and the C++ library, but I would welcome such changes.
