I know very little of how the FSF works.  From what I understand
the FSF is copyright holder, and all contributers have assigned
copyright to the FSF.  The copyright statement also only mentions
the FSF.

The documentation does mentions 4 authors.  It would be nice if
they could agree to it also.  But I have no idea what legal
rights they have to publish this under a different license.

You are correct that all libtool maintainers and major contributors have signed a contract which assigns rights to the FSF. Since the FSF owns the work, the FSF would need to make the decision.
