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.
