Overheating hydraulic fluid will break down and I have seen solid material develop in the fluid contaminating the whole system. The pumps may fail and filters will clog. At one time Airbus A300-600 suffered big problems in the Middle East with overheated systems with Pratt engined aircraft due to high nacelle temps.
