This does not work because IPv6 addresses are longer (and therefore have
more octets).

The variant I came up with (if we want to support both v4 and v6 listeners)
is

if grep -qiE ": 00000000+:14B2" /proc/net/tcp?

Simply removing the ": " check on its own might be sufficient for our
purposes but could falsely return true in a few cases.

If IPv4 backward compatibility on the listener check is not a concern, then
you should just match on the longer string of zeros:14B6 in /proc/net/tcp6
and not check both files for speed.
