I confirm that using nodejs >=4 solved the issue in node-esprima.

Now I'm down here.  The build fails with:

...

Same as before.  Any idea how to get the minimized versions of the
existing files ... or rather why it builds in stretch but not in Jessie.

Most of its Build-Depends are just in backports.  prompt-toolkit is
missing yet since I was trapped by finding a wrong pristine-tar inside
the Git archive.  Since this was happening from time to time I really
wonder how that can happen more frequently than I expected ...

Kind regards

      Andreas.
