When was the last time the brakes were bled? That is another thing as well, but if there is some component failing, allowing air in to the system, that would account for what you are describing as well.
I would still put money on master cylinder though, especially if it has been replaced with a reman unit.

Yes, usually you will feel it losing it'* pressure as you hold it. But with power barkes it can be the diaphragm, not a fluid leak.
