Thanks! That's a neat package. I tried it out, works well!

My core problem still remains, which looks like it might be a bug deep
within browserify, so I'll have to make some sort of simplified test case
before getting more help.

But thanks for recommending npm-server, that's really useful for pretending
to have a private npm repo.

Yip yip,
