Well I feel sheepish. PDFjam ships with
pdfbook, which solves exactly this problem and better. Yay!
As I can't post URLs, search for:
PDFjam is a small collection of shell scripts which provide a simple interface to much of the functionality of the excellent pdfpages package (by Andreas Matthias) for pdfLaTeX.
...
pdfbook which arranges pages into 2-up "signatures" (like psbook does for PostScript files), suitable for binding into a book. (Many people have suggested that this would be useful - I hope it is!)
