Need help on transmission decision...

I have a '91 9000T, 5 speed manual, with 90,000 miles. I have owned it since new and it has always been maintained and looked after. I was coming down the highway this weekend when a high pitched whine started and I had trouble engaging 4th gear. The dealer now tells me the transmission has to be replaced and that it also seems the output shaft bearing is bad. A quote of $4,000 was given with the caveat that the clutch might need work. What gives? I can't believe this is normal and I am very hesitant to spend the money to repair the car. Does anyone have any thoughts or suggestions.
Thank you.
