Using this project at this particular commit: kit-ty-kate/mastodon-archive-viewer@bd94f22 using OCaml 5.0.0~beta1
Then opening src/main.ml using emacs and reloading merlin will show the following error:

unknown flag -safe-string (0 pending errors, use C-c C-x to jump)

However the command is still around and works perfectly fine (it's no noop)

  + merlin binary
    - Restore compatibility with the compiler's command line by accepting
      the `-safe-string` flag as a no-op instead of rejecting it. (ocaml/merlin#1544,
      fixes ocaml/merlin#1518)
    - Mark some C variables as unused to remove warnings (ocaml/merlin#1541, @antalsz)

CHANGES:

  + merlin binary
    - Recognize OCaml 5.0 cmi magic number in compiler version mismatch message
      (ocaml/merlin#1554, fixes ocaml/merlin#1553)
    - Upgrade Merlin from the RC2 to the stable 5.0.0 compiler release (ocaml/merlin#1559,
      fixes ocaml/merlin#1558)
    - Improve type-enclosing behaviour when used on records' labels (ocaml/merlin#1565,
      fixes ocaml/merlin#1564)
    - Restore compatibility with the compiler's command line by accepting the
      `-safe-string` flag as a no-op instead of rejecting it (ocaml/merlin#1544, fixes
      ocaml/merlin#1518)
    - Traverse aliases when jumping to declaration. This matches
      jump-to-definition's behavior (ocaml/merlin#1563)
    - Improve locate's behavior in various ill-typed expressions (ocaml/merlin#1546, fixes
      ocaml/merlin#1567 and partially ocaml/merlin#1543)
    - Correctly traverse patterns when looking for docs in the typedtree (ocaml/merlin#1572)
    - Get documentation when the declaration or definition is selected (ocaml/merlin#1542,
      fixes ocaml/merlin#1540)
    - On Windows, change to a harmless directory when launching server to avoid
      locking down current directory (ocaml/merlin#1569, fixes ocaml/merlin#1474)
  + editor modes
    - emacs: Fix misuse of `eq` comparison (ocaml/merlin#1549, @mattiase)
    - emacs: xref works from context menus; better highlighting of xref matches;
      xref recognises operators and binding operators at the cursor position;
      bad locations are filtered out (ocaml/merlin#1385, fixes ocaml/merlin#1410, @mattiase)
  + test suite
    - Add a test for incorrect alert defaults (ocaml/merlin#1559)
    - Add multiple tests for locate over ill-typed expressions (ocaml/merlin#1546)
    - Add non-regression tests for other fixes in this release
