Oops; it needs to be done from within the directory:

	find lib/external -type f -name '*.[ch]' | \
	while read file ; do
		( cd ${file%/*} && svn merge -c -32526 ${file##*/} )
	done

But that's likely to be inefficient; in this case, you can just use:

	cd lib/external/shapelib
	svn merge -c -32526 .
