Cygwin + node.js + socket.io a no go

Question

Estoy tratando de obtener Node.js en ejecución en Windows Server 2003 x64 w/ cygwin pero sigue presionando las paredes.

Quiere que ejecute npm como sudo, pero esa no es una opción con cygwin (comando no encontrado ...) ??

$ npm install socket.io --loglevel verbose
npm info it worked if it ends with ok
npm verb cli [ 'node',
npm verb cli   '/usr/local/bin/npm',
npm verb cli   'install',
npm verb cli   'socket.io',
npm verb cli   '--loglevel',
npm verb cli   'verbose' ]
npm info using npm@1.0.1rc9
npm info using node@v0.5.0-pre
npm verb config file /home/rfitzger/.npmrc
npm verb config file /usr/local/etc/npmrc
npm verb caching /cygdrive/d/workspace/gits/hummingbird/package.json
npm verb loadDefaults hummingbird@0.0.1
npm verb from cache /cygdrive/d/workspace/gits/hummingbird/package.json
npm verb into /cygdrive/d/workspace/gits/hummingbird [ 'socket.io' ]
npm verb cache add [ 'socket.io@0.6.16', null ]
npm info addNamed [ 'socket.io', '0.6.16' ]

¿Quizás su instalación de nodo.js se realizó como root? Intente instalar Node.js localmente en Cygwin, luego instale NPM localmente, luego instale los paquetes

http://increaseyourgeek.wordpress.com/2010/08/18/install-node-js-without-using-sudo/

Aquí está el script general que uso:

#!/bin/bash -x

git clone git://github.com/joyent/node.git /tmp/node
export JOBS=2 # optional, sets number of parallel commands.
mkdir ~/local 
cd /tmp/node
./configure --prefix=$HOME/local/node
make
make install
export PATH=$HOME/local/node/bin:$PATH


# install NPM - Node Package Manager
curl http://npmjs.org/install.sh | sh

# install necessary node packages
npm install express  (etc..)

EDITAR: Hice esto en NPM versión 0.3.17 .. No puedo decirle qué sucede en NPM versión 1
