I'm getting a similar problem.  If I run node by itself I get:

root@redbone:~/node-red2# node
-bash: /usr/local/bin/node: cannot execute binary file

The path, /usr/local/bin/, shows it is there:
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root staff 9958098 Jun 13 22:21 node
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root staff      38 Jun 13 22:21 npm -> ../lib/node_modules/npm
/bin/npm-cli.js

When trying to run npm install, my previously working setup on debian 
wheezy, beaglebone black, has somehow broken and now returns:

/usr/local/bin/node: 1: /usr/local/bin/node: Syntax error: "(" unexpected 

when launching my previously working, node-red:
root@redbone:~/node-red2# node --max-old-space-size=256 red.js -v

results in this:
-bash: /usr/local/bin/node: cannot execute binary file

I'm not finding much about how to reinstall or clean up a misconfigured 
node installation.

Any tips would be appreciated,
Chris.
