I, um, well, I think you're jumping to a few conclusions:
I had clean fluid in there; I flush the brake system every year or so, and
I have the MP pressure bleeder.
I replaced this master cylinder way back in '04 at 172k and expected the new one to last just as long. '88 is cheaper than the ABS system (I've got that on the '92 with zero problems to date, also fresh fluid) but the accumulator there is only another 20 bucks over a new MC. Even if the leak brought in contaminants, I doubt they'd migrate all the way from the rear axle to both the clutch slave and the brake master.
