Unfortunately there's a reason, which is the need for a module not yet
ready for 0.7.x/0.8.x, node-sqlite3. And so the desire for the latest
0.6.19, in my crossed-up server. I suppose I can limp along using
LD_LIBRARY_PATH for awhile.
It'd be great to tap into the accumulating frustration with modules lagging
core. You probably saw a mention of someone asking about porting guidance
here, referencing this same module, node-sqlite3, in mid-thread:
"Node Addon: Threads and libuv ref counter (C++)"
https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/nodejs/Sob97-QbtlA\
Some people are already trying to move on porting. But how to equip them
with the knowledge needed to do so?
