Thanks Chris, all help much appreciated. I was not concerned as 
this initially only seemed cosmetic, however, I have tried some 
further permutations, using enum, and separating the result latch. 
  Attached is the source and resulting Verilog files for each 
combination.  The one that interests me most will not convert:

jan@T60:~/work/projects/MyHDL/igloo-tests/SnL_58_LshiftLoadInvertRshift$ 
./test_SnL_58.py
<class 'myhdl._SuspendSimulation'>: Simulated 15000 timesteps
Traceback (most recent call last):

I also have this problem in my main project, so getting a small 
example was a lucky catch.
