# invocation:   python merge.py overrides baseconfig [arch]
#
# This script merges two kernel configuration files, an override file and a
# base config file and writes the results to stdout.
#
# The script reads the overrides into a dictionary, then reads the baseconfig
# file, looking for overrides and replacing any found, then printing the result
# to stdout. Finally any remaining (new) configs in the override are appended to the
# end of the output
