The eq plist holds settings for the eq sliders only. It has no knowledge of which songs those settings get associated with.

Yeah, I figured that out.

A question, though: when I associate a particular eq preset with a particular track via iTunes' File menu -> Get Info command -> Options tab -> Equalizer Preset pop-up menu, a Finder search for recently modified files shows only the track itself; neither ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Library nor ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music Library.xml appear in the search results, but according to

mdls ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Library

metadata attributes kMDItemContentModificationDate and kMDItemFSContentChangeDate both accurately reflect the change.

Is this some kind of characteristic of database files, or what?
