v14.5.0 regression with npm #34162

• Version: v14.5.0
• Platform: OSX and Linux 4.15.0-1028-gcp
• Subsystem:

What steps will reproduce the bug?

$ npm install -g npm@4.3.0
$ npm install -g mocha@2.x voc

How often does it reproduce? Is there a required condition?

Every single time

What is the expected behavior?

Installs correctly (and you can verify this using node v14.4.0)

What do you see instead?

npm ERR! node v14.5.0
npm ERR! npm  v4.3.0
npm ERR! cb.apply is not a function

Additional information

Since this works in 14.4.0 and in 12.x, I'm inclined to believe this is a nodejs regression.
