I don't know which fussy developers you are thinking about:

RA4 developer is a bit fussy according to Kodak, but a print from the Feb 2011 test bottle looks exactly the same as one from a fresh mix from today. The tint of the developer is close to being the same as well.
The Aug 2010 test bottle of D76 is still water white clear. Tho I haven't tried a film in it for several months. The July 2011 bottle of Xtol is also water white and works perfectly as well.
Seeing as none of the three is supposed to be kept for anywhere near as long as these test bottles have, I'd say the generic 2 liter soda bottles are pretty damn good at preventing oxidation. :smile:
