pnpm install doesn't get the job done when node_modules is cached by Travis CI #315

Description

@zkochan

I noticed that there were errors of this kind when travis was configured to cache the node_modules directory:

> node test | tap-spec

module.js:457
    throw err;
    ^

Error: Cannot find module '../tap-spec/bin/cmd.js'
    at Function.Module._resolveFilename (module.js:455:15)

Probably not everything is cached and pnpm install doesn't finish the job. From the errors seems like the bin files are not linked.

Edit:
This is probably caused by the same issue:

$ pnpm install --quiet
 ! EINVAL: invalid argument, readlink '/home/travis/build/rstacruz/pnpm/node_modules/istanbul'

Tried to cache just node_modules/.store but there were dozens of circular symlink errors

adding /home/travis/build/rstacruz/pnpm/node_modules/.store to cache
/home/travis/build/rstacruz/pnpm/node_modules/.store/node_modules/d/node_modules/es5-ext/node_modules/es6-iterator/node_modules/d: symlink creates cycle
/home/travis/build/rstacruz/pnpm/node_modules/.store/node_modules/d/node_modules/es5-ext/node_modules/es6-iterator/node_modules/es6-symbol/node_modules/d: symlink creates cycle
