Re: [Vala] Safe call operator

[PCMan <pcman tw gmail com>]

This can induce hard to debug errors.
For example, something should raise an error or an execption now may return
0 only.
This return value might accidentally be used by other parts of the program.
When the project become larger, it's hard to trace this bug.
