warning: Recursive process.nextTick detected

Question

I have application, that I'm starting to work with, I'm just want to run it, but it crash. It use grunt, that run node server, it's Angular.js application. When I'm running grunt task that run the server and when I try to access the app from the browser, I've got warnings from grunt or node:

(node) warning: Recursive process.nextTick detected. This will break in the next
version of node. Please use setImmediate for recursive deferral.

lot of lines and finaly:

util.js:35
  var str = String(f).replace(formatRegExp, function(x) {
                      ^
RangeError: Maximum call stack size exceeded Use --force to continue.

    Aborted due to warnings.

I've try to search in my application for for process.nextTick but it's in lot of places in node_modules directory, and not in src.

Is it possilbe to remove that warning so I can run the application? What code should I search for this recursive call?

UPDATE

I use ack and found that this line came from this file in 3 places:

$REPO/node_modules/express/node_modules/connect/node_modules/multiparty/node_modules/‌​readable- stream/node_modules/core-util-is/float.patch
$REPO/node_modules/grunt-browser-sync/node_modules/browser-sync/node_modules/connect/‌​node_modu les/multiparty/node_modules/readable-stream/node_modules/core-util-is/float.patc‌​h 
/usr/lib/node_modules/bower/node_modules/decompress-zip/node_modules/readable-s‌​tream/nod e_modules/core-util-is/float.patch

But it's not js file.

This might be a grunt issue. Grunt will vomit if there's repetition in your naming conventions.

This will break:

grunt.registerTask('foo', [ 'foo']);

This will not:

grunt.registerTask('foo', [ 'bar']);
