npm install from Windows with node 0.8.x

[andreslozadamosto]

This release of Node (0.8) use node-gyp insted of node-waf.
Documentation: http://blog.nodejs.org/2012/06/25/node-v0-8-0/

There's any workaround on Windows or Linux?

I managed to make a binding.gyp file for arcusNode. I successfully built the dlls on windows.
Here's the gyp file:

    # but on Unix it was only possible to use the system OpenSSL library,
    # so default the variable to "true", v0.8.x node and up will overwrite it.
