I haven't tried this myself, but if I were gonna do this I'd probably consider ar_fixtures.

It'll dump models to yaml which you could then programatically filter for duplicate id numbers then re-load into the merged database. It would take some work though. The original blog post is available at http://nubyonrails.com/articles/dump-or-slurp-yaml-reference-data. Looks like the latest is up at http://github.com/topfunky/ar_fixtures/tree.

This may work for a single model, but think about associations when changing ids.
