Another EASA licence conundrum

What does one do if you are the only instructor/ examiner rated in Europe on a helicopter type and you need to re validate your licence to renew those of other EASA/CAA pilots flying the same type? The regulators say Not possible!
It appears an FAA licence is not acceptable currency and the CAA won't grant an exemption,however experienced said examiner is. Neither can another pilot with the type on his licence gain an examiner rating ,no matter how many hours on type he has flown!
How do the warbirds pilots get past this barrier?

Anyone know how this could be overcome?
