No.  It looks like the patch was never submitted to patches at koha.org,
and I didn't notice that a new version was attached to the bug.  I've
now pushed the patch along with an explanation of its usage to HEAD,
and at some point Henri can cherry-pick it into the 3.0.x branch.

The patch is pretty self-contained, so if you're not running from
HEAD, it would be safe for you to cherry-pick and apply that patch.
The auth_by_bind option it refers to would be set as an element in the
<ldapserver> section koha-conf.xml, e.g.,

<auth_by_bind>1</auth_by_bind>

Regards,

Galen
