trouble integrating with restify (require order, module not found error)

[dasantonym]

i wanted to set up pmx with restify (4.0.3) and i understood i need to include pmx before inclusion of any http related stuff happens. so since i want to make pmx optional (external config file) i happen to include it within an async waterfall during setup.

so when i include restify before pmx everything works (except for catching routes with pmx, i guess).

but when i include it like this:

// ...
        }, function (cb) {
            if (config.get.api_server.usePmx) {
                pmx = require('pmx').init({
                    http: true, // HTTP routes logging (default: true)
                    ignore_routes: [/socket\.io/, /notFound/], // Ignore http routes with this pattern (Default: [])
                    errors: true, // Exceptions loggin (default: true)
                    custom_probes: true, // Auto expose JS Loop Latency and HTTP req/s as custom metrics
                    network: true, // Network monitoring at the application level
                    ports: true,  // Shows which ports your app is listening on (default: false)
                    alert_enabled: true  // Enable alert sub field in custom metrics   (default: false)
                });
            }
            cb();
        }, function (cb) {
            var restify = require('restify'),
                server = restify.createServer({
// ...

i get this weird stacktrace and error:

/usr/local/bin/node --harmony app.js

Process finished with exit code 255

so it is some load action in pmx/lib/transaction but i have no idea what it is supposed to be doing exactly. am i doing something wrong here?

EDIT: using node 4.2.1 on mac os x 10.11 with pmx version 0.5.5
