This has been enabled now in Vala SVN trunk. There are two new
commandline options:
--disable-non-null revert to the behavior of Vala 0.2.0
in case you want to update Vala but
haven't ported your code yet
--enable-non-null-experimental warn whenever you try to use a
possibly-null type as a non-null
type, this is still work in progress
and considered experimental
