I've got an E6400 myself and the only time I could get
it to hang was when trying to use brcm80211 driver from
staging. The problem appears when I rmmod/modprobe the
driver after it looses connection to my wifi router.

Since the driver is still in staging and buggy as hell
I didn't bother notifying anyone. But it's true that
shutdown truly hangs.

Are you using brcm80211 driver too ?
