Damn! I was hoping you knew of some proprietary and/or commercial color-matching magic.

I've spent a lot of time searching for Windows-based software capable of histogram matching (video) and haven't had a lot of luck.

MatchGrade available for NukeX, Avid DS and Final Cut Pro seems very good but probably not much help to you unless you have a Mac.

If you search around the net, there are many interesting papers proposing methods for matching colours between (mostly) static images and I think if you had some scripting ability, and could also translate the math, you could achieve excellent results with video. More so in this case as you'd be matching frame-for-frame and the distribution of colour between the sources would be very similar even if the colours themselves are different.
