As in this version there is no arithmethic support I added commands true5 and

They return five times true and then false (true5) or inverse (false5)

You can use grub-set-default command (shipped with grub legacy), which
should be easily ported for windows (if your boot partition is readable by win).
(It is shell script.).

So what needs to be done is place an image back once in a while. It
should be possible to create a GRUB command for that, I guess. :-)
Why a command? A better way, IMO, is using some variables stored in file.
It could be presented as array SAVED_INTEGER of integers and SAVED_FLAGS

I then boot GRUB like so :

This may be the problem. Is that how you normally boot? What about
"boot hd:1,/grub/grubof.modules" -- does that
