Desired functionality.

Working E2E tests

Mention any other details that might be useful.

Looks like the same issue as https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/issues/5082 but that was fixed a while ago ...

Upgrading ts-node to ~3.3.0 also seems to fix this by the way.

Duplicate of https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/issues/7050, it's ts-node as you mentioned.
