Manual tranny/clutch screech

My '01 9-3HOT has developed a small but very noticeable screech when engaging the clutch from a stop in both 1st and reverse. The dealer said they thought it was the clutch which is no longer covered under warranty. (It's considered a "wear item" according to them.) The car has just over 19k miles.
My concern is that this could cause problems in the future. I had a '92 VW Corrado with a similar but louder noise and it ultimately blew big chucks of the tranny threw the bottom of the casing.
My questions to you folks are:
1) Have any of you experienced the same?
2) If so, has the situation led to other problems or failures?
3) Was your dealer willing to work with you at all?
Thanks in advance for your help.
