+This array **may** be a mutable reference to the same underlying list of
+listeners that is used by the event subsystem.  However, certain
+actions (specifically, removeAllListeners) will invalidate this
+reference.

+If you would like to get a copy of the listeners at a specific point in
+time that is guaranteed not to change, make a copy, for example by doing
+`emitter.listeners(event).slice(0)`.
+
+In a future release of node, this behavior **may** change to always
+return a copy, for consistency.  In your programs, please do not rely on
+being able to modify the EventEmitter listeners using array methods.
+Always use the 'on' method to add new listeners.
