Thanks to all for your suggestions.  It turns out that pump-and-bleed
worked.  Even though the fluid was coming out clean with the pressure
bleeder, I got more dirty fluid and a lot of air out the right rear.
A little dirt and no air out of the left rear.  Fronts were fine.
I wonder what's going on?

I'm not done yet, though.  My bomb is still sick.
