bug#27021: [PATCH 2/2] gnu: node: Use unbundled dependencies.

[Jelle Licht]

No problem, I use this stuff quite often.

I noticed the problem with the bundled copies in the source as well, but ran into the same issues you mention here.

Maybe I will look into it when the next node version is released.

Thanks for these patches! I updated the TODO comment about http-parser
to say "TODO: Purge the bundled copies from the source". I tried to do
that with a source 'snippet', but the Makefile expects to build these
targets, so it will take some work. Would you mind looking into it? :-)

Regardless, I've applied these patches for now. Thanks for maintaining
this package! :-)
