Maximum call stack size exceeded

See original GitHub issue

🐛 Bug Report

When running acceptance tests, I am sometimes getting a maximum call stack size error.

RangeError: Maximum call stack size exceeded
        at Function.[Symbol.hasInstance] (<anonymous>)

To Reproduce

Sorry, but I cannot reproduce it 100%. It sometimes happens when I create a writable stream:

const fs = require('fs');

describe('xxx', () => {
  it('will sometimes exit on max call stack', () => {
    fs.createWriteStream('test.log', { flags: 'a' })
  })
})

Expected behavior

Does not crash on max. call stack.

It seems to sometimes reproduce on this repository: https://github.com/alesmenzel/churchill
