Description

When I use livereactload with a React app (0.14.7) with mapbox-gl-js I get errors with Web Workers (which mapbox-gl-js uses webworkify to create). I don't really know enough about how livereactload works to debug further. It seems to be related to module detection and browserify wrapping in the web worker? Without livereactload everything works fine. I am using babelify, seeing this in both babel v5 & v6, and both using ES2015 and CommonJS module syntax.
