Edited Issue: Attach is broken for Visual Studio 2013 Update 3 [1422]

Trying to attach locally with a process that was started with the --debug flag causes a 'General Exception' box to display.

With both July 22 and September 26 releases of the tools the attach fails on VS2013 Update3. However, the September 26th version works on VS2012 Update 3.

There seems to be a Visual Studio specific issue that is causing this break possibly a difference in the remote debugging interface from VS.

Here are the steps to reproduce:

start a node.js process (I did this with an express 4.x project)

$ node --debug app.js
debugger listening on port 5858

In Visual Studio attach dialog switch the transport to Node.js remote debugging and set the host to localhost:5858 (or 127.0.0.1:5858).

Expected:
Visual Studio Attaches and allows for debugging of the script files.

Actual:
Visual Studio 2012 Update 3 properly attaches

Visual Studio 2013 Update 3 fails to attach with the attached screenshot dialog 'General Exception'.

This reproduces on my test machine with a clean install of VS 2013 Update 3.
