Error message when installing a module that's currently a dangling symlink could be improved

[aredridel]

Currently, my node_modules/hapi-stateless-notifications is a dangling
symlink. When I tried to install the module:

:; npm i --save hapi-stateless-notifications
npm ERR! Darwin 15.0.0
npm ERR! argv "node" "/usr/local/bin/npm" "i" "--save" "hapi-stateless-notifications"
npm ERR! node v0.12.7

npm ERR! errno -2

npm ERR! enoent ENOENT, stat '/Users/aredridel/Projects/npm/newww/node_modules/hapi-stateless-notifications'
npm ERR! enoent This is most likely not a problem with npm itself
npm ERR! enoent and is related to npm not being able to find a file.
npm ERR! enoent

npm ERR! Please include the following file with any support request:

I think this could be detected and warned specifically -- or dangling symlinks
treated as non-existent and removed.

I think you're right! Can this wait until after npm@3 hits general release?
