Build still broken on ARM linux

[ststeiger]

node --version
v6.5.0

npm --version
3.10.3

uname -a
Linux localhost 3.10.18 #1 SMP Tue Aug 2 21:26:16 PDT 2016 armv7l armv7l armv7l GNU/Linux

lsb_release -rcd
Description: Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS
Release: 14.04
Codename: trusty

Built according to:
http://www.hanselman.com/blog/BuildingVisualStudioCodeOnARaspberryPi3.aspx

purged old nodejs, installed node 6, latest + npm
sudo apt-get install libx11-dev
git clone https://github.com/microsoft/vscode
cd vscode
./scripts/npm.sh install --arch=armhf

This is not a dupliate of #6442
My NodeJS +NPM version is the latest possible version.
It still doesn't build.
Why is it building windows mutexes on Linux ? That can't work...

You need to use npm < 3.9 as per https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/wiki/How-to-Contribute#build-and-run-from-source, this is happening due npm/npm#12698 trying to installing windows-mutex even though it's an optional dependency.
