Fix race condition when creating socket folder

Browse Source 
If two processes call `mkdir` at the same time, the second one will fail
and wrongly assume the folder wasn't created properly.

We now first check if the folder really doesn't exist and we also catch
any IPC initialization errors and disable IPC instead of crashing the
whole bar.
