Why not add this to metadata.hpp:

    +  template <typename M>
    +  static void print_on_maybe_null(outputStream* st, const char* str, const M* m) {
    +    if (nullptr != m) {
    +      st->print_raw(str);
    +      m->print_value_on(st);
    +      st->cr();
    +    }
    +  }
 
and use it for the things that ubsan complains about now.  Then you could use it for the next set of ubsan complaints.
