In my case, I just quit bleeding too soon.
Clutches are harder to bleed than brakes since they don't have a definite
stop point to work against.
Toward the end the slave cylinder was moving 1/16" or so but still no
pedal feel. This state lasted through a few bleeding cycles.
Make sure you're not re-aspirating through the bleeder or running out of
fluid in the reservoir.
