Does this sound like a simple matter of replacing the clutch fluid or
something more sinister like a master cylinder?

Ken,
Are you losing fluid? Check and see if there is brake fluid on the slave
cylinder and take the boot off the master cylinder under the dash and see if
fluid is leaking in there. I think it might be a bad master cylinder as it
only happens once it is warmed up and you have to pump it. Good luck
