Just as speculation, in lower gears, it's easier for the clutch to spin the gears in the ZF, axles, wheels, stc..  In 5th the clutch sees the maximum load.

I'm just a computer guy, so I'll definitely defer to you and the other 
experts. But wouldn't the clutch slip in all gears, not just fourth? If 
it was a clutch problem.

I would have thought his problem is inside the ZF if it is only 
occurring with one particular gear.
