The way I play it, 4 spades, 5 diamonds. Partner bid spades first because it's a major suit. If partner had 5 spades, I assume that he'd rebid spades (to play in the 5-3) rather than 3♦.

If I have four spades, I'll usually assume equal. If I have 3-3, I'll assume longer diamonds.
If I have 4-4, I'll use judgment, which scares me also.
But, I generally assume equal or longer diamonds.
