Unable to install global gulp for the newest node.

I have the similar issue that was described in the closed issue #658.

$ npm install -g git+https://[email protected]/gulpjs/gulp.git

I just compiled fresh node from the github repository and trying to install gulp:

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/nodejs/node.git
cd node
./configure --prefix=/opt/nodejs && make && make install
/opt/nodejs/bin/npm install -g gulp
npm WARN engine [email protected]: wanted: {"node":">= 0.9"} (current: {"node":"5.0.0-pre","npm":"2.14.2"})
...

Other global packages like typescript, bower etc installed without any problem.

This is a vinyl-fs issue from looking at the logs, open it there (or just send a PR removing engineStrict from the package)

Created a new issue there, but I can't find the engineStrict in its package.json.

Closing due to being an issue in a dependency.
