Force IDE cannot create project with dupe package names

I cannot create a Force project in the new IDE because the org has multiple versions of a package installed:
Mail Items (version 1) and Mail Items (version 1.1).
 
Uninstalling version 1 gives me an error and I am afraid that uninstalling 1.1 may delete the items now in production.
 
Is there a workaround?

Just to clarify - Force IDE creates a project with the schema but no other entities.

This is a known issue, please see the release notes:

We are working on a fix to uniquely identify package names, but for the time being you must do this yourself. Just change the name in Eclipse and it should work.
