One simple way to do it is to add a header that places the upstream 
Call-ID into the downstream's messages via a unique header.

e.g. BobBergazziUpstreamCall-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:5678

Have your B2BUA put that into all requests within the downstream leg.  And 
then have your processor look for the presence of that header when trying 
to determine if a Call-ID is unique.  It doesn't handle the case where the 
downstream element acts as a UAC to send a request upstream.  That may 
require some Route/Via/Contact twiddling to do reliably.

Admittedly this ain't robust.  :)
