He did the 5th with Berlin? Why was I not informed???? (I've only come across the Schubert 4th with Berlin.)

Released last year on BPO's own label of live-performances from the mid 2000s. This is available as either just the symphonies, which is what I own, or with Mass No.5, Mass No. 6 and Alfonso und Estrella.
I like these performances of the symphonies as a whole just a tad bit more than his earlier RCO cycle.

Listening to the Mack recording now.  Lovely, un-aggressive HIP with charmingly rustic winds.
