Try M-x byte-recompile-directory RET and specify
~/.emacs.d/elpa/auctex-13.0.14/ as the target directory. It will
byte-compile latex.el and generates new latex.elc there. After that,
restart emacs. Then you can taste updated behavior.

You don't have to clone git repository just to apply a patch and test
it. In the directory ~/.emacs.d/elpa/auctex-13.0.14/, issue a command
patch -p1 < PATH_TO_PATCH_FILE
. That will update latex.el, leaving the original file as latex.el.orig .
