Comment(by conradwt@…):

 OK, I'm seeing the following when I query the value of the global value:

 {{{
 $ npm get global
 true
 }}}

 Now, the issue was the following which I didn't manually create and/or
 edit myself:

 $ npm config list
 ; cli configs

 ; userconfig /Users/conradwt/.npmrc
 global = true

 ; globalconfig /opt/local/etc/npmrc

 ; node install prefix = undefined
 ; node bin location = /opt/local/bin/node
 ; cwd = /Users/conradwt/pubnub
 ; HOME = /Users/conradwt
 ; 'npm config ls -l' to show all defaults.
 }}}

 Next, I'm seeing the following:

 {{{
 $ npm list -g
 /opt/local/lib
 ├── coffee-script at 1.2.0
 ├─┬ js2coffee at 0.1.3
 │ ├── coffee-script at 1.2.0

   ├── semver at 1.0.13
   ├── slide at 1.1.3

   └── which at 1.0.2
 }}}

 Finally, when I'm in the home directory, I get the following result and
 things are back to normal:

 {{{
 $ npm list
 /Users/conradwt
 (empty)
 }}}
