a new, empty project and then drag and drop the folders from the existing
code *into* the new project. After that's done I have to create library
references, etc...
Is this the correct approach, or is there something more simple that I'm
missing...?

One additional hint: if your existing project uses Ant to build, you can
try the new feature in Eclipse 3.1 to create a project from an Ant build
script. I haven't tried it myself, but if it works it might make things
a little easier for you.
