Before you go to the trouble of messing with the master cylinder, do the pumping test Dean first suggested. If you can get the pedal to remain firm after a few pumps, then the cylinder may be fine.
Regarding the rotors: They can be very hard to get off. I have doubts about the effectiveness of a rubber mallet unless it weighs about 2 lbs or more. The last car I had to remove the rotors on (a non-Saab), I found two threaded holes in the rotors. I just found the right size bolt and screwed them in. A little twist of a wrench popped them free when the end of the bolt passed thru the rotor and pushed against the metal mount behind it. (Use your head, not a hammer. If no go, reverse that advice. ;-)
