 With node 0.8.7 x64 (Windows 7), npm seems to not see global modules

 with -g, there are errors because it's trying to put the global module 
 under the install dir, c:\Program Files\nodejs\node_modules and for this 
 it needs permissions which it doesn't have.

 Reverting back to node 0.8.6 and npm 1.1.48 shows correct behavior.

 Is this a known issue?

I have heard of a different person with what sounds like a similar problem, 
but no idea how wide spread it is.
