Setting the default encoding for a writable stream does
not return a boolean (true if successful or false if not)
as the docs indicate. Instead, if the operation is successful
nothing is returned and the method throws an error when
something goes wrong.
This stems from a contribution that was tweaked but the
docs were never updated accordingly.

Snapshots speed up start-up by a few milliseconds but are potentially
dangerous because of the fixed hash seed that is used for strings and
dictionaries, making collision denial-of-service attacks possible.
Release builds on iojs.org have snapshots disabled but source builds
did not, until now.
The risk for individual source builds is low; the binary gets a random
32 bits hash seed that should be hard to guess by an external attacker.
It's when binaries are distributed by, for example, a distro vendor
that the fixed hash seed becomes a vulnerability, because then it's
possible to target a large group of people at once.
People that really need the faster start-up time can use the new
--with-snapshot configure flag.

Notable changes:
* npm upgrade to 2.3.0 fixes Windows "uid is undefined" errors
* crypto.pseudoRandomBytes() is now an alias for crypto.randomBytes()
and will block if there is insufficient entropy to produce secure
values. See https://github.com/iojs/io.js/commit/e5e5980 for details.
* Patch for V8 to properly detect ARMv6; binaries now work again on
ARMv6 (Raspberry Pi etc.)
* Minor V8 upgrade from 4.1.0.7 to 4.1.0.12
* 'punycode' core module bumped from stability level 2-Unstable,

It is supposed to test an internal debug feature but what it effectively
ends up testing, is the exact lifecyle of different kinds of internal

Lifecycles are different across releases and platforms, making the test

Previously pseudoRandomBytes worked similarly to randomBytes but in the
event of insufficient entropy would silently return non-secure values.
As of f68a116, the entropy pool blocks if there is insufficient entropy
instead of giving an error so there is now no longer a case where
pseudoRandomBytes would act differently than randomBytes.
Docs are updated to remove pseudoRandomBytes and to clarify that
randomBytes now does block instead of erring when entropy is low.
