It's not great to have to patch Node internals like this, but it's the best we've got in the short term. See #1101 for details of the problem this solves.
This logic was tested on Node versions 0.12.0, 4.6.2, 6.11.0, and 8.1.3 (Windows 10, 64 bit).
Longer term, we need to work with the Node folks to get a proper fix into Node itself and then make this patching logic conditional on older versions of Node.
