Isn't the attribution only required in the "history" section, not on the page itself? If that's the case, you could simply adapt Special:Export to have a link in the page history to the author on the original wiki rather than a link to a user account that may or may not exist and may or may not be the correct person on the current wiki.
Like this, but with the links actually going to Wikipedia rather than being a pseudo-account: http://scratchpad.wikia.com/index.php?title=User:Simetrical&action=histo...
