Having put some effort into testing I am unable to make the problem recur.
I have to conclude that I had some transient hardware problem with this machine that just happened to occur a few hours after the upgrade to 3.2.0-56 was made. As of the next day nothing like it has happened again.
I have reseated the ram cards as a precautionary measure.

Title:
  12.04 freezing after update to 3.2.0-55/56

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  After the most recent kernel upgrade to 12.04 released on or about
  November 8th 2013 my machine started to freeze after a variable period
  of use but only a few minutes in each case. The only thing I could
  then do was to power down and reboot - file system errors were usually
  found on restart. fsck was able to fix those. I have never previously
  had any such problems.

  Two full passes with Memcheck found no errors and disk utility reports
  no disk errors - read error rate is 0, reallocated sector count is 0.

  I have enabled the Grub menu and am now using 3.2.0-54 with no
  problems at all.

  The kernel and system logs do appear to show call stack dumps and
  'BUG' messages.
