Are you searching at all? Your pages long find command seems to just exclude
instead of searching…
In which files do you think the string "charset-map-path" will occur? Then
search for these files only:
M-x find-grep RET
<insert the search string at the cursor position>
<insert '-name "*.el.gz ' appropriately>
<adjust where the search will start, if needed>
<adjust the grep command to deal with compressed files>
RET
It also works to search in C source files with '-name "*.[ch]"'.
