Update to node-abi 2.4.0 should fix it, https://github.com/lgeiger/node-abi/releases/tag/v2.4.0

You need node-abi 2.4.1 or later.

@malept thanks. You’re completely right, of course. My apologies. When creating a fresh repo with just that single dependency on electron-rebuild@1.8.1, it resolves just fine to the node-abi@2.4.3, so something must have been off in either some local state, or maybe a yarn bug combining dependencies. In any case not something relevant for this repo, I agree.
