I'd probably just take a simple Unix command line approach, something
like:
find /base/dir -type f -exec md5sum {} \; | sort | uniq -Dw 32
this will give you a list of files whose contents are identical
(according to an MD5 hash). An alternative would be to put the hashes
into a database and run the matching up there.
