And so is importing the CC-BY-SA contributions into a new map which is not
licensed CC-BY-SA.  If one is disallowed then so is the other.

I guess that would work.  The resulting collection would be distributable under
CC-BY-SA only.  If all of the old work without the extra consent is deleted, and
all work derived from it (see earlier discussion), then you could distribute the
result under the ODbL.
