The ::0 (0.0.0.0 in IPv4 netstat speak) listener for telepathy-salut is
bound on the IPv6 socket, but still handles IPv4 requests. So just
/proc/net/tcp6 can be looked at in 13.1.0/Fedora 18 as we ship it.
But if there is an option to tell telepathy-salut to bind to 0.0.0.0
instead of ::0 and force the listener to use IPv4 binding, then both
/proc/net/tcp and /proc/net/tcp6 have to be checked if we wanted to be
backward-compatible, or just paranoid in case something we don't know or
don't expect can tell telepathy-salut to do that.
