Node = V8 + libuv, so they'd likely have to integrate with libuv.

Not Node.js-compatible, but there are libuv bindings: https://github.com/creationix/dukluv

It could be node compatible. I'm just not done.

Personally though I prefer the libuv APIs over the node APIs.

Doesn't a node shim at least get all the libs from NPM?
