I'm in slam, and since it's matchpoints I don't bother thinking about getting to diamonds.

I would pass. If partner doubles, I try 6NT. Partner should not double with a void, I think.
If partner doesn't double, I try for 7.

I would bid 5 too but should really abstain since I happen to know what partner's hand was.
