new.target support

[75lb]

is new.target supported?

using node 5.7, this code:

'use strict'

class Example {
  constructor () {
    console.error('new.target.name:', new.target.name)
  }
}

new Example()

outputs:

new.target.name: Example

however, standard v6.0.7 doesn't seem to recognise new or target as valid:

$ standard tmp/target.js
standard: Use JavaScript Standard Style (http://standardjs.com)
  /Users/lloyd/Documents/jsdoc2md/testbed/tmp/target.js:5:39: 'new' is not defined.
  /Users/lloyd/Documents/jsdoc2md/testbed/tmp/target.js:5:43: 'target' is not defined.
  /Users/lloyd/Documents/jsdoc2md/testbed/tmp/target.js:9:1: Do not use 'new' for side effects.

This is a known eslint issue (see eslint/eslint#5420). It looks like it's already fixed and is just waiting a release on npm.

Hopefully this will be working for you in a few days!
