Of course you are right that I need to carefully examine the flare for a crack or deformation. It's difficult to with hydraulic fluid coming out though (still hooked to the slave). With the slave out, I can examine it pretty closely and don't see anything other than some minor scratching of the mating surface. My bet is that the problem is with the hose flare. A local garage replaced it last year and the clutch has never felt right since. When I went to disconnect the line from the slave the first time, it was REALLY tight. I think the mechanic had trouble with it at installation and simply muscled away the leak (partially).I ordered a new hose.
