I would double, since this hand is good if we have a 5-4 major fit but likely very bad otherwise. This risks some serious awkwardness if partner has a good hand without a 4 card major though.

Edit: In retrospect x is pretty lol-aggressive, pass has to be percentage.

I think I'd pass too. I just don't think I can afford to act with nothing at all vul in competition like this, any time I don't strike a fit I am putting our side at huge risk.
Please let me know about any questions or interest or bug reports about GIB.
