I still think the Classic and Vintage folks can offer more info on the options of finding a new 120mm OLD wheel; with a 5 speed freewheel.
Part of me still thinks the answer is a more common 126mm (freewheel) and reduce it to 120mm and re-dish. That would be the route I would take. You may end up at 122 OLD, which would probably be fine.

Edit Added: Obviously building a wheel solves a multitude of issues. At that point, the number of crosses, double butted spokes, as well as the advantage of picking the hub comes into play. Unfortunately low cost is probably not part of the equation.
