Description
If you are not in the current working directory of the Node script you're starting (e.g. `app.js`) then the following error occurs:
``` bash
error: TypeError: Cannot call method 'listen' of undefined
at Function. (/var/sites/my-project/node_modules/igloo/lib/boot/server.js:52:18)
at next (/var/sites/my-project/node_modules/bootable/lib/initializer.js:43:15)
at next (/var/sites/my-project/node_modules/bootable/lib/initializer.js:46:9)
at next (/var/sites/my-project/node_modules/bootable/lib/initializer.js:46:9)

```
However when you're inside of the cwd, it lets you run it fine.

Research direction
Reproduce the failure by starting the Node script outside its current working directory, then inspect node_modules/igloo/lib/boot/server.js around line 52 and the bootable initializer stack. Done means the script starts successfully and no longer raises the undefined listen TypeError when launched outside the working directory.
