permissions prevent `npm rebuild`
See original GitHub issueI’ve reproduced this in a git checkout, and by installing from npm.
In github, just checkout master, npm install, and npm rebuild, the rebuild fails with:
> ibm_db@2.0.0 install /private/tmp/node_modules/ibm_db
> node installer/driverInstall.js

I believe it is because all the .mo files are read-only:

That might be a problem in the zip or tar file they were extracted from.
