I tried that to no avail. There's an option to disable volume encryption,
an operation that does not decrypt the volume, but leaves the full volume
encryption key (the "real" key that the startup key encrypts) in the clear
on the disk. I tried disabling, thinking that if I turned around and
immediately re-enabled encryption, I would have the opportunity to create a
new startup key. However, when I re-enabled, BitLocker automatically
produced an identical startup key.

It's possible that decrypting and then re-encrypting the drive would work,
but that's terribly time-consuming.
