Thanks Andrea, much appreciated.

Have installed your latest test kernel on my ASUS W1N Pentium M (banias)
machine running 18.04 Xubuntu, and it appears to work!  Have shutdown
normally and rebooted several times with no problems.  (Note: unable to
test on the HO6710b machine that originally reported the bug - its still
on long term loan to my brother)

Output of commands...

uname -a
Linux asusw1na 4.15.0-54-generic #58+lp1827884 SMP Wed Jul 3 10:05:45 UTC 2019 
i686 i686 i686 GNU/Linux

NOTE: I'm still a Linux newbie.  I have a couple of questions about what
happens next, and grateful if anyone could offer some guidance...

I installed 3 of the test kernel deb packages:
   linux-headers-4.15.0-54_4.15.0-54.58+lp1827884_all.deb
   linux-headers-4.15.0-54-generic_4.15.0-54.58+lp1827884_i386.deb
   linux-image-4.15.0-54-generic_4.15.0-54.58+lp1827884_i386.deb
Should I be installing any others to make sure everything else and all my 
software applications etc still work?  (Just a basic end user of the generic 
version)

And what happens next once the bug fix is confirmed?  Will it roll into
the automatic updates?  Do I have to uninstall the test kernel to still
get those updates?

Thanks for any advice on the newbie questions.  And Thanks again Andrea
for the fix!
