ELIFECYCLE error when installing bcrypt on node. CXX Error?

After installing OS X Mountain Lion and XCode, I'm getting this error:

Jonathans-MacBook-Air:fme jong$ npm install bcrypt
npm http GET https://registry.npmjs.org/bcrypt/0.7.0
npm http 304 https://registry.npmjs.org/bcrypt/0.7.0
npm http GET https://registry.npmjs.org/bindings/1.0.0
npm http 304 https://registry.npmjs.org/bindings/1.0.0

I have a feeling that it doesn't know which compiler to use. How do I fix this?

The problem may be that your Node.Js is version 0.10 and some modules only work with the previous 0.8.22 version which you can get here: http://blog.nodejs.org/2013/03/06/node-v0-8-22-stable/

xCode doesn't bundle command-line tools by default. Apple explains it in their documentation.

Apparently I just need to install the Command Line Tools from the downloads panel in XCode
