Crashes Nw.Js on Linux

Expected Behavior

It should not crash

Current Behavior

The moment the module is called the whole App crashes and there is no error log. This guy #227 seems to have the same problem but could not communicate his issue properly. Used to work on 0.30x Nw.Js releases but not recently. I am on 0.45.5. This issue has been there since earlier 0.40+ releases. My theory is to do with Node version since then (like a massive internal change of sorts)? The node module version currently is node-v79. I never reported it because I assumed it was going to be fixed sooner or later but it never has.

Possible Solution

I really have no idea, my thoughts have been explained above.

Steps to Reproduce (for bugs)

All it takes is const = require('iohook'); //And instant crash with no trace to be found

Context

Trying to be able to handle global keyboard shortcuts.

Your Environment

Just any Nw.Js in recent times. As mentioned before Nw.Js 0.45.5 is the latest and it still crashes with it. I've only tested it on Linux

• Link to your project: externos.io (won't really help solve the problem, but there you go).

This is probably not something that won't addressed anytime soon. If anyone uses Nw and would like to PR or handle this issue please do so, otherwise will close this soon.
