On a new install (reset_all so sample data):
/cgi-bin/koha/members/moremember.pl?borrowernumber=5

With the patch:
Click "Add guarantee" and get 
"Cannot add patron
There are no patron categories defined. Please add a patron category."

Without the patch, on master:
Click "Add guarantee" and get the "add patron form"
/members/memberentry.pl?op=add&guarantor_id=5&category_type=C
