Andy, I have had a bit of rust form inside the tubes of my All-Rounder (I wasn't quick enough with the frame saver). I basically followed the method Eric Norris recommends and have not had a problem since...it's been 10 years.
Based on my experience riding in rain/cyclocross, the seat tube/post is quite suseptable to moisture entry.
