Subject: [PATCH] txt2man: mention runtime dependencies on gawk and coreutils

The commit message in 1a2b47463b45c2b05ec80ade28781afc986576af is
incorrect -- the package seemed to work because only the help message
was invoked:

    result/bin/txt2man -h

To guard against such trivial successes, this commit introduces a
test.
