applied the patch by hand, but now it won't bootstrap. Here is what I get:

See the Autoconf documentation.
Have you ever bootstrapped MySQL++ successfully, or have you always used
released tarballs?
If you've never bootstrapped MySQL++, it probably means you're missing
some of the autotools, or they are too old.
If you have bootstrapped successfully before, it's very strange because
this patch can't have affected autoconf, and AC_DISABLE_STATIC is a very
old feature of autoconf, so why would it suddenly stop working?
