Sounds like you want to prevent future rusting of the threads.

Not a problem if you keep the anti-sieze back a few threads on the flare nut 
and bleeder.   Also slide the flare nut back and apply some to the line ( 
keeping away from the flared end).  

After bleading the brakes, use air and/or brake clean to remove brake fluid 
from inside the bleader.  Cap the end with a vacuume cap, this will prevent 
water from entering the bleader.
