You don't need this, we have nodejs 4 in debian now, and require('readable-stream') can be patched

away easily.

However, i'm all in favor of declaring that nodejs package Provides node-readable-stream,

and place the shim in /usr/lib/nodejs, because i'm bored too.

nodejs could provide

/usr/lib/nodejs/readable-stream/index.js

```

exports.Readable = require('stream').Readable;

```
