E-Tag's is per request-URI (and to some extend Content-Location). Two
objects with different URIs but the same ETag is not guaranteed to be
identical. Only two responses from the same Request-URI with the same
ETag is supposed to be guaranteed to be identical.

What you can do is to use an url_rewriter to unify your URL-namespace,
mapping all known duplicates to a single URI variant.
