I have not yet heard about or seen failed brake master cylinder on a 9-5 so that's the last place I would look for a problem, especially right after a brake job has been performed.
I would probably remove all pads and check caliper and pad surface so that the pad actually have the proper fit (especially if using something else than Saab original pads).
If you have a 99 9-5 (pre VIN X3020000 US spec), the Mintex front pads might not be curved properly to fit the caliper and you need to grind off a little bit on the backing plate.
