I spent a few hours w/ this last night but was unable to find a workaround that didn't involve manual modification of the Node.js sources to force dns resolution via IPv4. I'd also be very surprised if Node.js was the only affected program!

is it even possible to get npm running?

related, It might be worth contacting the NodeJS foundation to see if Onion can help them add better MIPS support. If Onion were able to donate a few Omegas, it'd surely go a long way.

Thanks. Has anyone had any success getting npm and/or the node-gyp toolchain working?

Has anyone had success building the iojs 2.x package?
