PVS-Studio warning V668 for Chromium

bool CrashService::Initialize(const std::wstring& command_line)
{
  ....
    sender_ = new CrashReportSender(checkpoint_path.value());
    if (!sender_) {
      LOG(ERROR) << "could not create sender";
      return false;
    }
  ....
}

This suspicious code was found in Chromium project by PVS-Studio static code analyzer.
Warning message is:
V668 There is no sense in testing the 'sender_' pointer against null, as the memory was allocated using the 'new' operator. The exception will be generated in the case of memory allocation error. crash_service.cc 221
