(kbd "fp") == "fp", so why would you need to use kbd explicitly to bind 
"fp"?  With the patch:

(local-set-key "f" some-command) binds f
(local-set-key "fp" some-command) binds f p
(local-set-key "f p" some-command) binds f SPC p
(local-set-key "C-p" some-command) binds C-p
(local-set-key "M-p" some-command) binds M-p
(local-set-key "C-M-p" some-command) binds C-M-p

But if you want to bind C - p (capital C, dash, p) you have to use a 
vector:

(local-set-key [(C) (-) (p)] some-command) binds C - p
