Remarks

This function will get an exception if it tries to talk to an r3 epmd, or if something else happens that it cannot forsee. In both cases we return an exception (and the caller should try again, using the r3 protocol). If we manage to successfully communicate with an r4 epmd, we return either the socket, or null, depending on the result
