ionic-cli: Ionic serve stops working out of nowhere

I have an RC0 app that was working fine last night. “ionic serve” worked fine. Now all of a sudden this morning I type “ionic serve” and it will not work. Logs:

I have (so far so good) found a workaround, by deleting the node_modules and running ‘npm install’ in the project directory.
