I have a workaround. 
If the author uses the a special code for [ and ], e.g.
#91; and #93; then the note is exported correctly.
--------------------------------------------------------
** example
This is not anymore a broken footnote.[fn:: Some book at #91; 42-24 #93;.]

Exports to:
This is not anymore broken footnote.[1]
[1] Some book at #91; 42-24 #93;.
----------------------------------------------------------

But then the file have to be post-processed to substitute #91; and #93;

Place these lines in .emacs, or evaluate them (goto the last ") " and hit C-x C-e) 
for the current session :
----------------------------------------------------------------------
(add-hook 'org-export-html-final-hook  'gio/replace-square-brackets)
(add-hook 'org-export-ascii-final-hook 'gio/replace-square-brackets)

(defun gio/replace-square-brackets ()
"Replace #91; with [ and #93; with ] "
(interactive)
(setq a "#91;")  ; use "\[" for LaTeX export
(setq a1  "[") 
(setq b "#93;")  ; use "\]" for LaTeX export
(setq b1  "]")
(ignore-errors (goto-char 1) (setq p (point)) 
(while (< p (point-max)) 
(re-search-forward a nil nil) (replace-match a1)  (setq p (point)) )  )
;;
(ignore-errors (goto-char 1) (setq p (point)) 
(while (< p (point-max)) 
(re-search-forward b nil nil) (replace-match b1)  (setq p (point)) )  )
(save-buffer) ) 
----------------------------------------------------------
Tested for  HTML, ASCII.

For the LaTeX export  the line:
      This is not anymore a broken footnote.[fn:: Some book at #91;
      42-24#93;.]
exports to:

      This is not anymore a broken footnote.\footnote{Some book at \[
      42-24 \]. } 


So the LaTeX seems to convert directly the #9?; character.

Not tested for docbook.
