Hi,

I think that's something that came up recently on the list:
https://mail.gnome.org/archives/vala-list/2013-March/msg00012.html

Basically, the prototype in the vapi needs to be:

[CCode (cheader_filename = "stdlib.h")]
public string? realpath (string path, [CCode (array_length=false)] uint8[]?
resolved_path = null);
