`whack link` blows away `node_modules/.bin`

[aaroncraig10e]

On a clean install (create-react-native-app and then yarn run eject) the whack link command removes a slew of executables found in node_modules/.bin, including react-native so the whack run start command does not work.

Did I do something wrong?

npm: 5.5.1

Thanks for reporting this! We just added NPM 5 support, might be an edge case we haven't hit yet. I'm still personally on NPM 4.

@jpdriver do you have time to check this out?

Just to add more color, it also seems to be blowing away the contents of many modules under node_modules.

Happy to help debug if necessary.

Note to self: I just managed to reproduce this issue with npm 5.3.0.
