bundle dependency with native dependencies

[José F. Romaniello]

I have a module with a bunch of bundled dependencies (bundledDependencies in package.json). I've noticed that if the bundled dependency is native (compiled/node-gyp)  it will be rebuild when I install my module. However, it the bundled dependency has a dependency on a native module this will not be rebuild when installed.

A --- bundles --> B

  In this case B is build when installing A.

A --- bundles --> B --- depends on --> C

  C is not build when installing A.

I'm not sure if doing an "npm rebuild" after installing A will rebuild C.

NB:  quite a while later.

We just hit this.  My workaround was to cd into the bundled dependency and issue command `npm rebuild`.  I'm having to do this as a one-off for each dependency in this category (bundled dependency with native code).

It'd be jim-dandy if someone could propose a general (and recursive) solution to this problem.
