Nodejs 6 bundles openssl 1.0.2.h, where RHEL/CentOS have a much older version. That hasn't been an issue in Fedora; For CentOS, there is a build for Node.js 4 in cbs, including a patch to unbundle openssl and to make it work with the way older lib. Unless we have a comparable patch (if possible) for Node version 6, maybe we should stick with version 4?
