texi2txt: add workaround for a known bug in "mawk"

As reported by Douglas Torrance, the script that generates the plain text
documentation from the texinfo source would crash due to the cross-
references when the version of awk used is "mawk".

This is actually a known bug in mawk:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=172774

It looks like the bug have been fixed in mawk, but Debian is still
providing a broken version. To avoid problems, this patch is introducing a
workaround in the matching pattern that causes the issue every time it is
being used.
