Yeah the orange winter Rain-X fluid is good, it didn't freeze on me up in Killington. The winter Prestone windshield washer fluid is good too, I think it's rated for even colder temperature!
I know SAAB used to sell a windshield washer fluid heater device for the 9000, I wonder if that's available for the 9-5... probably unnecessary with strong fluid though.
After you come home with the engine already warm, try letting your car sit with the engine idling for 10-15 minutes, maybe the engine heat will defrost the lines. Good luck!
