Make sure you have some clearance between the brake pushrod and the master cylinder piston when the brakes are off. If not the compensating port could be blocked due to the piston not fully retracting and as the fluid heats up and expands, it locks the brakes on. I've had this happen before on a P.D inspection due to bad master cylinder to booster clearance and it resulted in very smoky brakes.
