How many miles and what year is your Neon? The control arm bushing replacement is faily common and the sticking caliper is something that usually happens with high mileage or age. I'm not really sure what the leaking "rear wheeled cylinders" are though...
Brake fluid leaks are not good. Are you having to add brake fluid once in a while??? You should pull a wheel and the drum and look and see if you have fluid in the shoes or just under the rubber boots of the wheel cylinder. Some under the boot is normal as the brake fluid actually lubricates the pistons.
Calipers probably just need a quality brake job with the slides being thoroughly cleaned and lubricated. Might even get a brush to clean out the caliper slide receptors.
Control arm bushings happen and it is a great time to go POLY!!!
