In the documentation for sqlite3_prepare_v2, it says:

*ppStmt is left pointing to a compiled prepared

sqlite3_step()<https://www.sqlite.org/c3ref/step.html>. If there is an error, *ppStmt is 
set to NULL. If the input text contains no SQL (if the input is an empty string or a comment) 
then *ppStmt is set to NULL. The calling procedure is responsible for deleting the compiled SQL 
statement using sqlite3_finalize()<https://www.sqlite.org/c3ref/finalize.html> after it has 
finished with it. ppStmt may not be NULL.

Is an empty SQL statement always an error, i.e. is it possible for 
sqlite3_prepare_v2 to return SQLITE_OK while leaving *ppStmt NULL?

No. An empty SQL statement is not an error. prepare_v2() should return SQLITE_OK and sets *ppStmt to NULL.
