[gauntface]

Just to clarify: this is using gulp documentation

[jeffposnick]

I'll file a PR to update the documentation dependency, which I'd been meaning to do anyway. Maybe it's resolved in a more recent release.

Also, @jpmedley, what does node --version say?

[jpmedley]

Upgraded to 7.4.0 and getting an identical message.

This is on mac.

[jeffposnick]

I believe @gauntface fixed this with #154
