-<em id="fn1">1</em>: The gcc4.8-libs package needs to be installed, because node
-  binaries have been built with GCC 4.8, for which runtime libraries are not
-  installed by default. For these node versions, the recommended binaries
-  are the ones available in pkgsrc, not the one available from nodejs.org.
-  Note that the binaries downloaded from the pkgsrc repositories are not
-  officially supported by the Node.js project, and instead are supported
-  by Joyent. SmartOS images >= 16.4 are not supported because

   like `mintty` requires the usage of [winpty](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty)
   for the tty channels to work correctly (e.g. `winpty node.exe script.js`).
   In "Git bash" if you call the node shell alias (`node` without the `.exe`
   extension), `winpty` is used automatically.
