OK... take the M8.  Like the others, I think that if you don't, you will 
always wonder if it could have been better if only.....
 
Given your lens choices......on an M8....and the fact that you are going to 
places of antiquity that usually require WA lenses.....

WHy would you need the 90?

The 28 and 35 ( or 35 and 50) are close in angle of view.  Do you need all 
3?  Why not the 28 and 50?  The antiquity area you will be visiting usually 
requires WA lenses.  YOu will probably want the widest lens you have..... 
the 28.

The other way to go is to beg borrow or steal a Tri-Elmar.  No lens changes, 
3 FL available.  And no decisions to make.
