[Pkg-javascript-devel] node-tap 8 update might break your test suites (in a trivial way)

If you're maintaining a package depending or build-depending on node-tap:
node-tar
node-isexe
node-nopt
node-findit2
node-string-decoder
node-hosted-git-info
node-fs.realpath
node-nan
node-inline-source-map
node-process-nextick-args
node-core-util-is
node-once

or if you've setup autopkgtests depending on node-tap,
please check that your tests still work with latest node-tap 8.

Why ?
Older version of node-tap was doing something wrong with current
working directory, that has been fixed, and that tests may have
required a patch to work with.
(typically you needed to add some process.chdir calls).

Upstreams using tap have fixed their testsuites a long time ago.
