I recently updated my org-mode git repository (for a long time I've
had an older git version that I was using), and I am now having
problems when doing latex exports.
I bisected with git to find that the "problem" starts with this revision:
commit 54318add34f09ff39d3fd034a4c1a89f60fd8759

Change export block syntax
It seems that #+begin_latex is no longer supported, and that when
using it, it results in escaped latex comment symbols (e.g. \% in the
tex file instead of just %), as well as \begin{latex} and \end{latex}
in the exported code.
If it is no longer supported, then it is important that the org-mode
documentation be updated (see e.g.
http://orgmode.org/manual/Quoting-LaTeX-code.html ), since those using
the latest release will have trouble exporting using the old syntax.

It also might be worthwhile to have org-mode warn users (at least for a
number of new releases) who happen to be using the old format, explaining
that they need to use the new one to avoid problems when exporting.

Manual is already updated. You are probably looking at an old manual
version.

@Mark The online documentation corresponds to the stable releases of
org-mode only.
The master branch is the dev branch. The only way to access the latest
documentation is via the Info manual (M-x info in emacs to access that is
the best way IMO).

Thanks, I see that now -- I had mistakenly assumed that because the current
stable release date was later than the date of Nicolas' commit, that it had
been included in the release.
