I had a look at this and tried doing what you suggested, but copying and 
patching had zero effect on the tests. They are still failing.

According to [1] I think terser bin has to be generated from the source 
with the patches applied.

I tried your approach and tried generating the minfied terser.js but the 
autopkgtest error[2] suggests that the patched function(minifySync) 
aren't seen in the minified lib/terser.js

Can you maybe use this upstream patch onto node-terser and also generate 
a min file that can be used with ruby-terser? Is it possible?

Or do you have any other alternative to suggest ?
