Trying using the category file. If pixels with the same
values have differing membership degrees, then you may
need to use two numbers in the category label:
  c:n m 
(where c, the category, is just used as an identifier,
       n is the actual value
       m is the membership degree)

Another way that is a little neater is to just use the reclass
facility: 

  map reclassed_map
  c:n c:m

This would make it easier to use tools like r.mapcalc for your project.
The latter would definately be more recommended if you intend to
create a "product" (i.e., redistribute your work to others)
