Node 11 now comes with v8 v7.0, does this mean Webassembly threads are supported? Or are they behind a flag?

I was curious about this also, but couldn't find an answer. The most relevant thing I learned was that WebAssembly is exposed as a global object since Node.js 8.0.0, without a runtime flag.

A list of WebAssembly features implemented by Node.js can be found here (the right most column):

ReferenceError: SharedArrayBuffer is not defined

I couldn't get a basic example working because `SharedArrayBuffer` isn't available in node. I wouldn't be surprised if the other bits aren't either.
