Sorry for the late reply.  Your change doesn't work as expected for
ordinary tables.  Here is an example.

```
\input texinfo.tex

@quotation
@multitable {@w{@code{português} or}} {@code{do} @code{re}/@code{re} @code{mi} 
@code{fa} @code{sol} @code{la} @code{sib} @code{si}}
@item @code{català} or@*@ @code{catalan}
  @tab @code{do} @code{re} @code{mi} @code{fa} @code{sol} @code{la} @code{sib} 
@code{si}
@end multitable
@end quotation

@bye
```

I've compared `texinfo.tex` version 2022-02-16.13 and the one from git
version beb67a5f972190315c (which misses a proper version update,
BTW), see attached images.  The formatting of the latter looks wrong
and TeX emits a bunch of 'overfull' warnings.

In other words, it seems that you've introduced a bug :-)
