I've got an Erlang/Elixir application that's being invoked via
child_process in Node.js.  Outside of Node.js, it's fine.  Inside, the node
crashes on startup with a badarg from disksup -- this is because the
application requires that os_mon be started.

A trivial reproducer is the following:

var child_process = require('child_process');
child_process.spawn(path_to_app_executable, ['foreground'],
 { stdio: ignore,
   detached: true });

Included is the crash:
