I just got my M5 back from DAG. I have a rather important question. Does
it not have a CL-like meter, with a CdS cell on the end of a stick that
projects out behind the lens? I removed the lens and have been
performing every variation of fiddling with the advance lever and all
else, and I see no sign of a CdS cell behind the lens. How can you made
that thing appear?

When you wind it, the meter flag drops if a lens is on.  Use an LTM adaptor, 
on there and you can see it.
