If your files are named file.tif, file.tif.ovr, file.tif.ovr.ovr, etc I
think that GDAL will automatically read the overviews.  gdalinfo file.tif
will show if GDAL reports the presence of the overviews.

A VRT could be used to combine the various files then gdal_translate that.
gdal_translate with COPY_SRC_OVERVIEWS=YES could create a single tif with
the overviews (more details, http://www.gdal.org/frmt_gtiff.html).  I'm not
sure if COPY_SRC_OVERVIEWS will work on external overviews.
