Sky Man, I was going to suggest Cat Litter (unused, of course  ) on a stain if it was wet - as cat clay will absorb just about anything; and suggest dry laundry determent moistened enough to make it stick together on a dry stain, but thought I'd check the web before commenting.
Here's what I found on the web. Damn, I'm good. 
- Fresh Stains
- 1Pour kitty litter or sawdust directly onto the power steering fluid. Allow it to sit on the fluid for several hours.
- 2Stir up the kitty litter or sawdust as the fluid begins to absorb. Use a push broom to move it around so that it can absorb any remaining fluid on the concrete.
- 3Use a shovel to scoop away the kitty litter or sawdust, along with the power steering fluid, once it looks as if it has been absorbed completely.
- 4Scrub the area with grease-cutting dish soap and water. Use a stiff scrub brush to briskly scrub the stain. Rinse the area with plain water.
Dried Stains
- 1Fill a bucket with warm water. Add a few squirts of grease-cutting dish soap.
- 2Pour the soapy water directly onto the power steering fluid stain. Scrub the area briskly with a stiff scrub brush.
- 3Fill the bucket again, this time with hot water. Dump the hot water onto the stained area. Scrub again with the scrub brush.
- 4Rinse the area clean with hot water.
- 5Use powdered laundrydetergent to remove power steering fluid from concrete. Sprinkle a generous amount of the detergent onto the stained area. Add some water to form a paste. Scrub the area with a stiff scrub brush and allow it to sit overnight. Add more water the next day and scrub again. Rinse the area clean with plain water.
- 6Apply ovencleaner if the stain persists. Cover the stain with oven cleaner and scrub with a wire brush. Rinse the area clean with water.
- 7Clean the concrete with trisodium phosphate if you don't want to go with one of the other cleaning methods. Mix 1 cup trisodium phosphate with 1 gallon of water. Pour the mixture onto the stain and allow it to soak in for about 20 minutes. Scrub with a stiff scrub brush and rinse clean with water. Repeat the process if necessary.
