How Weather-proof is D-LUX 4?

Alright, I'd probably never dare to take my M9 out into a blinding dust storm without some sort of protection, but some point-and-shoots claim to be weather-proof. I've put the DMW-LA4 tube and a filter over the lens of my D-LUX and I think it's protected pretty well, but how about the rest of the camera? Just how weather-proof is the D-LUX 4?

I have the D-Lux 5 which I don't believe would be any less water resistant than the D-Lux 4 and the answer is not very. I took it out in a protective case in the rain, pulled it out for a couple of shots, trying not to get it too wet, and even so the lens fogged up pretty quickly and took quite a while to dry out. I'd be wary of the taking the M9 out in inclement weather, too. No such problem with M6. Best answer may be an even more waterproof case.
