this problem, assuming people are using it to gain PR or SE, could also be done with 301s possibly.

What if i have a PR 6 site, then created a blank directory with a htaccess 301 redirect to the most popular file/page on a site with a PR 2?
eg:
redirect /mydir/mysite.html h**p://somesite.com/somefile.html

The googlebot would also see this as duplicate content, and also think that the content it directs to belongs to my site.
