Ember v0.0.44 project not building with a "Use of const in strict mode." error message

I need to update a template in a fairly outdated ember project (its about 5 years old) but I'm unable to build it.

Here is the working environment:

Nodejs v0.10.46 (via NVM)
NPM    v2.15.1
Ember  v0.0.44
Bower

Here are the contents of the package.json file:

{
  "name": "xxxxx",

  "directories": {

    "express": "^4.8.5",
    "glob": "^4.0.5"
  }
}

Here are the contents of the bower.json file:

{
  "name": "eam-ui",
  "dependencies": {

    "FileSaver.js": "koffsyrup/FileSaver.js"
  },
  "resolutions": {
    "jquery": "^1.11.0"
  }
}

Building the app produces the following output:

ember build
version: 0.0.44

const buildLiveReloadPath = require('clean-base-url');

I know this project is SUPER outdated. Any thoughts on what I can do resolve this build issue? Or should I start planning my escape???

Thanks in advance!
