Oh, I bet the problem was just a cut-and-paste issue. In particular,
this line:

+                  EXTRA_LIBPCRECPP_LDFLAGS="$EXTRA_LIBPCRECPP_LDFLAGS
-Wl,$flag";


looks like two lines in the bug report, but is actually one line. If
you change it to one line in your editor (with a space before the
-Wl), the patch should work.

There are a few other places where this happens, such as

-EXTRA_LIBPCRECPP_LDFLAGS="$NO_UNDEFINED $EXPORT_ALL_SYMBOLS -version-info
libpcrecpp_version"
