You'll want to figure out how to fix that if you're going to release
your program under a non-GPL license. MySQL++ is LGPL, so you have to
dynamically link to it if you want to keep your code proprietary.

$ man diff
It makes it easier to apply the changes automatically (with patch(1)),
and it makes for less typing for you. ;)

Okay, bag goes over head now. I was sure I tried that myself and it
didn't work....

The comma is missing on purpose. Look at the top of connection.cc to
see how SHUTDOWN_DEFAULT is variously defined.
I think the problem is that you're not using the configure script, and
you've also neutered platform.h. You either need to use configure and
set up platform.h to #include config.h on your system, which will define
HAVE_MYSQL_SHUTDOWN_LEVEL_ARG when necessary, or you need to set up
platform.h to optionally define that macro. Study platform.h and you'll
see what I mean.
Personally, I think you should be using configure, since you're on a
nominally Unixy platform. If you are, and HAVE_MYSQL_SHUTDOWN_LEVEL_ARG
still isn't being defined correctly, that's where you need to direct
your debugging efforts.

Thank you.

I guess a buglet was quietly squished in recent releases.

I imagine the best bet would be the MinGW mailiing list.
