The best way would probably be to hire Mike himself to do it. I know
such consulting of open source authors has been done for other
embedded products.
While at it, the consulting author could be used to spread inside
knowledge about the tool (LuaJIT 2.x) to the customer's personnel.
By the way, have you checked how much simply using LNUM patch
(optimizes standard Lua performance for non-FPU platform) would help?
Maybe it is enough to get your project rolling, and you can jump to
LuaJIT 2 when it is ready.

If you have issues with LNUM, you can hire me any time! 8P

And I does not find anything (roadmap/discussion) on when LuaJIT
will support them.
You should properly send a MIPS based computer to Mike then, thats
the normal way to get support for a new hardware platform in open
source.
Hear, hear! People with budgets should do it; please support good
software. libsdl is a good example where Sam got not insignificant
amounts of stuff ( http://www.libsdl.org/donations.php ); Logitech
donated peripherals, others a GP2X and a Nintendo DS, and I recall
his Mac OS X laptop was almost paid off...
