I'd say to re pitch to be safe. I'd also suggest to go with the same yeast, or if not give that new yeast plenty of time to eat some sugars that first may have left.

I would dry hop with 2 oz of your aroma hop for one week, then add a pack of S-05 dry yeast to the bottling bucket along with your priming sugar.
Is this in the primary, setting on the yeast cake? I only ask because there has been a lot of discussion of how long is it "safe" to leave a beer in the primary before the yeasties start to die off and leave bad flavors behind. I have no experience with this, just something I've read.

Interesting that you posted this. I stumbled onto that thread right after reading this one and read through about half of it before curiosity got the best of me and I skipped to the scoring. Good info.
