Please propose a patch upstream *without* releasing to Debian yet.

It seems to me that upstream provided a limited ABI and that axios or 
webpack is accessing parts of eslint-scope code that is *not* exposed as 
part of that ABI.

Possibly upstream has a good reason for limiting the ABI, and a better 
fix for this issue is to patch axios or webpack to only use the public 
ABI.
