Thanks Roadrunnere42,
update worked, although I noticed that admin_status/index.htm was logging:

daemon.err uhttpd[4517]: cat: can't open '.version': No such file or directory

I think .version was incorrectly included on the "Shield Update Last Run" line:

luci.sys.exec("cat /.do_date .version  | cut -c5-10")

So I've just added a tweak into GitHub that avoids the need for a separate .version file to be manually updated. Now, fw_upgrade parses the header comments to look for the version number, and pushes that straight into the .do_date file.  There are also corresponding admin_status changes to match.  Nothing urgent, but a change that'd be useful to push out with the next 8.4 version published.
