I would give two part epoxy a try, you can find it at nearly every hardware store and it should be strong enough as long as you don't up the spring power a whole ton. I would also recommend posting future issues like this in the "Modifications" area of the forums. Welcome to NH, make sure you read the new member's guide.
Edit: If that doesn't work I have a spare set of mav internals that works perfectly except it needs a new O-ring that I could sell you for just a few bucks. Or if you want I could just sell you the catch instead of the whole set.

You should be able to get a replacement maverick catch for around a buck shipped if you choose that route. In the mean time, you can do an immediate fix with superglue. For long term I would look into dremeling/drilling a little slot crossing the crack and supergluing a piece of paper clip (or maybe coat hanger if you want to be really thorough, not sure if that would make the remaining plastic too weak to fit it) in there. I'm not sure how tight the specifications are but you might have issues with the catch moving up and down like it's supposed to if you use epoxy and it's very easy to apply too much.
