Hmm, that "(2)" is being added by ox-texinfo.el's to make the node
unique.  As I mentioned in another message
(<87tufue02l.fsf@kyleam.com>), I think these parentheses are probably
okay, even for older versions of Texinfo.

On the other hand, I have no objections to sidestepping the issue with
something like this:

diff --git a/doc/misc/org.org b/doc/misc/org.org
index 85117714ee9..adf24da1c3f 100644
