Sigh.

A transitive dependency called isbinaryfile is used by scandal, our library for doing project-wide token searching. It uses [email protected]. That version’s package.json defines a main of ./lib/index.js — a path that does not exist in the package! — so Node complains; but the package still loads properly because there's an index.js at its root, so the default handling logic kicks in. So it complains loudly but ends up doing the right thing.

This never got fixed in the 2.X.X releases, so fixing this would involve upgrading to isbinaryfile@^3. That's certainly doable, but involves an API change. That means we'd have to change scandal itself, and we'd probably want to convert it to JavaScript if we touched it. So it's not likely to get fixed in the short term.

A quick (but hacky) fix would be to filter out any log lines that mention it in src/task.js. I'd do this as a stopgap if it were truly a problem, but I doubt it's worth it.

I'm surprised I've never gotten this log spam. (Maybe I've just never noticed it?)
