You actually don't have that many contributors. I've seen this done
for projects with 200+ contributors.
Even better, most LLVM contributors are still around.
If you have to rewrite a little code along the way to account for
folks you can't find, this is probably worth the expense anyway (and
i'm pretty sure we'd be happy to fund it :P).

The more interesting question is whether you want to dual license, add
a general exception to the LLVM license, or switch wholesale to MIT
license.
