 Replying to [comment:14 gk]:
 > I think we should not set `m_tb_control_port` to `9151` now in the catch
 clause and open a new ticket for implementing a saner solution across all
 Torbutton code. We can discuss there what we want that solution to be.

 That sounds like a good plan. I opened #20057.
 Here is a revised patch for this ticket:
