>Description:
When building native npm packages with a node.js built from /usr/ports/www/node, and a v8 built from /usr/ports/lang/v8, running gives a an Undefined symbol "_ZN2v811HandleScopeC1Ev".
>How-To-Repeat:
This is an example using the 'hiredis' package, but any npm module that builds a native package should have the same effect (I get the same thing with 'node-mongodb-native' and 'forever').

Install node from /usr/ports/www/node.

Then:
$ cd ~
$ curl http://npmjs.org/install.sh | sudo sh
$ npm install hiredis
$ node reader.js
/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: /usr/home/brett/node_modules/hiredis/build/default/hiredis.node: Undefined symbol "_ZN2v811HandleScopeC1Ev"
