In registry.ts, globalThis is incorrectly polyfilled, which causes it to choose a different global instead of an already-present globalThis.

Namely, the act of declaring var globalThis shadows the actual globalThis, causing globalThis to be undefined within the IIFE.

This becomes an issue in node.js server-side rendering environments where window is polyfilled, and node's globalThis has different functions than window does.

Suggested fixes:

  1. Rename the variable to something else, or
  2. Just use globalThis without attempting to polyfill. LTS versions of node support it, and versions as far back as v12 (released in 2019).
