Is there a way to duplicate a project but with new GUIDs/UUIDs?

I'm fairly sure this has been asked before somewhere, but I don't ever remember finding a positive answer to it.

We have a load of projects, and they've all got various paths and symbols configurations. Sometimes, we'd like to be able to duplicate a project, especially, for example, one that's a unit test sort of thing, so copy/paste could be useful. However, we also have experience of trying to use the "References" tab within the "Paths and Symbols" section to tie specific build configurations together and, when we did that previously, with copy/pasted projects, all manner of hell broke loose because the links between configurations used UIDs which had been duplicated with the copy/pasting.

So, the question, basically, is whether there's any mechanism built-in whereby a copy of a project can be made, but all of the UIDs can be re-created and made consistent.

Thanks
