It shouldn't matter, but it's impossible to be 100% sure it will work 
since I don't explicitly test it.

Looks like you need to upgrade www/libnghttp2 as well. :)

In general, www/node requires that all dependencies are up-to-date. The 
port doesn't explicitly list minimum versions of its dependencies, but I 
am beginning to think that it should (this is not the first time I have 
seen this kind of problem).

Good luck, let me know if you still have problems after making sure 
everything is up-to-date. :)
