What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. npm install esprima
2. cd node_modules/esprima
3. npm install
4. npm test

What is the expected output?
I guess successfully run tests.

What do you see instead?
> node tools/check-version.js

module.js:340
    throw err;
          ^

This is not going to be easy to fix. The test is expected to be executed only 
from a Git checkout of Esprima, not for an install via npm.

Sorry, I realized that after I put this up, forgot to close it. That totally 
makes sense. You might want to mention it in the documentation.
