@DiMarzio:
I sort of did what you're thinking of: I renamed my old ep.crf to ep.crf.bak just in case and then made a copy of ep2.crf and renamed it to ep.crf.

Anyway, it has following folders: Books, fam, intrface, mesh, motions, obj, snd and strings.
So yes, it's looking in that fam folder first. So if the stuff in patchedres is simply old textures then you won't notice a change in-game. However, I don't know why I didn't think of this before, but you could easily just open up one of those textures outside of thief and check to see if it's different than the old thief textures.
