David,
I don't think anything would stop you from crafting a set that works for the tenor guitar. But there doesn't seem to be an alternate tuning set for GDAE at this time available.
My recommendation would be single strings (EADG) .013 plain, .020 PB, .030 PB, and .045PB
You would only have to re size the nut slots and possible the bridge string holes, but most likely just the nut would need to be altered a little bit to accomodate the thicker strings.

Anyone want to try those string gauges and give us a report?
Thanks,

Elderly was selling a GDAE tenor guitar string set for the Breedlove tenor. I used it on my Blueridge 40T and found it worked great.

The inventory is always in some flux, but that's part of the fun.
