Since two weeks ago a nodejs-current package is now available.

(1) Install nodejs to get the current LTS version (currently 6.11.2).
(2) Install nodejs-current to get the latest/bleeding edge version (currently 8.4.0).

There exists a disabled-packages/nodejs-current for building version 8.x of node. It currently doesn't build, so help is welcome here:

Build the dependencies with ./build-package openssl && ./build-package c-ares, and then investigate the build failure with ./build-package.sh disabled-packages/nodejs-current/!

@fornwall Can you update nodejs-current to v8.5.0? It includes some useful filesystem features.
