Description
Below is the source file I am using:
```js
require('source-map-support').install();
throw new Error('error on line two');
```
The following command will generate the __correct__ output:
```sh
node dist/bundle.js
```
output:
```
/Users/nick/Desktop/dist/webpack:/example/index.js:2
throw new Error('error on line two');
^

The following command with __not__ generate a line number or other source map information:
```sh
cat dist/bundle.js | node
```
output:
```

The issue seems to arise when passing a script via standard input to node. I originally discovered it when I was creating a child process in node and passing generated code to it.
Please let me know if any more information is needed.
Thank you for your time in supporting this awesome project, and for taking the time to help me.
