FYI I've now written a small utility "rtfuc" to work around this bug and
also to provide better ASCII substitution characters for commands like
unrtf --text (as some RTF authoring tools always use a question mark for
all substitution characters even when others might be better, e.g.
curved quote to straight quote).

rtfuc is for now at
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ssb22/indexer/master/rtfuc.py you can
pipe your RTF file through it before sending it to catdoc or unrtf.  If
you want to use it as a library, it is on PyPI at
https://pypi.org/project/rtfuc/
