I'd set an ID in the body tag for each individual page and divide up your
CSS based on that.  body id="index", body id="common", etc.

Then you've got 

#index ... {
}

#common ... {

}

I do a lot of work with a product called Farcry which is a content
management system and this is how I change styles on a per-page basis.

You could take the modular approach. Instead of creating stylesheets 
for individual pages, you could, for example have

* common.css
* web.css
* intranet.css

Having individual style files for individual pages seems worse than 
embedding styles in the head of a document. It seems to me you've 
got all the disadvantages plus extra calls to the server.
