 Are you sure this is the correct place for this patch? This ticket is for
 `get_queried_object()` issues. You are addressing issues with
 `is_category()`. They are obviously related, but I believe yours is a
 separate issue. This ticket is trying to resolve many cases where
 `get_queried_object()` inappropriately returns `NULL`. Even if this issue
 is fixed, there will be cases where `NULL` is properly returned, such as
 your condition.

 To clarify reproducing your error, people need to make a non-existing
 category request, any non-existing URL will not necessarily do it. And
 have `WP_DEBUG` set to `true` of course.

 Thx Sergey! Frustrating seeing one's errors and not being able to do
 anything about it.
