While reviewing a dependency update for Gulp I looked into the context of the fs.Stats change. It is explained in nodejs/node#51681 (comment), found via nodejs/node#51879. This comment highlights that a possible future change may break the code here again:

If we manage to remove it from the public API we can just do Stats extends StatsBase here (which is a breaking change by disallowing construct calls without new/Function.prototype.call

This change broke Deno compatibility:

error: Uncaught TypeError: Class constructor Stats cannot be invoked without 'new'
    at newStats (... /node_modules/.deno/vinyl-fs@4.0.2/node_modules/vinyl-fs/lib/dest/prepare.js:13:34)
```

1. Gulp doesn't support Deno. You can see in our CI matrix that we only support Node.
2. Seems like a broken compatibility layer in Deno. You should report it to them.
