That's exactly why we're bothering with it.  Everything in it will be
in the nodejs package someday.  Why not get ready now?

Also, the packaging infrastructure needed to build binary modules
against iojs and nodejs will also make nodejs010/nodejs012 split
packaging possible in EPEL, so a lot of the work needed to get this
done is going to be done sooner or later anyway...
