Hi Matt, I don't think he's concerned about Dave suing him. I think he is concerned that one of the committers could potentially have used code from their work or cut and pasted code from someone else who then (a la SCO and Linux) might come trolling for licensing revenues.
In practice, there isn't much he can do to avoid the risk. He's just hoping to find other large companies to share the risk with and is hoping (a little optimistically in my opinion) that if the other companies haven't been sued yet that he won't be sued either.
