You can for instance split the patches in several groups and enable only one group (simply delete the other groups from the patch file) and look what changes in the display. Italics, bold, size and so on can give you further clues.
Or if you are rather interested in changing one specific area, try to find a possible catch word, like "dictionary", "footer" and so on, and search for it in the binary file, css blocks that are located near to such words are like related to them.
Another way, which I did not try myself, might be to disassemble the binary file and try to find which routines refer to which data.
If you are able to identify something useful please post it here, so that I can use it in the next version.
