What's your plan now? Would your plan be different at different vulnerability?

I'd have overcalled 3.

Regardless of vulnerability, there isn't any hand that would bid like this and would now be worth a bid at the five-level.

It might be a good idea to double 4NT, in case the opponents don't know their methods. However, on this hand I'm quite happy to let the opponents bid to slam if that's what they want to do. I can make a Lightner double to get my club ruff, and it sounds as though the diamond is cashing too.
... that would still not be conclusive proof, before someone wants to explain that to me as well as if I was a 5 year-old. - gwnn

3D before would probably have worked better. Now 6D. I would save in 7D over opponents slam.
