no need for a loop, r.patch will do it directly. The order that
you give the input maps determines which map will take precedence.

Beware if you use Vista you might have to switch off UAC to
get r.patch to work. The latest theory suggests that renaming
r.patch.exe to r.fred.exe (or r.niels.exe or whatever) will also
solve it. (This is almost as dear as pressing Cancel at the
login prompt to successfully login if you didn't know the login
password for Win95/98)

If you are not running 32bit Vista and it still breaks, or
if it breaks and the r.fred.exe solution actually works, we'd
like to hear about it.
