It looks like the error is dependent on the node version.

I was getting a similar error on nodejs v4.0 (latest version on arch linux repos), trying to install socket.io-client. The issue seems to be resolved for node v4.0 on the latest release of this repo (which is not used by the last release of socket.io-client).

Now I'm trying to install on an Amazon linux with node v0.10.36, and I'm getting the same error as @gk1

Seems like v1.1.0 is the last version compatible with node v0.10.36

EDIT: socket.io-client issue for reference: socketio/socket.io-client#884

Closing this as Node.js 0.10 is no longer supported.
