I suppose it could be a misfire, but to misfire only when releasing the clutch in first gear from a dead stop, plus no CEL or other misfire problems? Hopefully (and most likely) not.

If it had to do with loose clutch or flywheel bolts, I imagine there would be more than just a shudder on certain types of clutch release.

Also, this may or may not be related, but if I'm slowly rolling to a stop on a uphill type of slope and pull the handbrake up (letting only the handbrake stop the car), when it comes to a rest and settles backwards (catching the brake), it rolls about 1 inch and clunks before the ebrake stops the car. Like there is a tiny bit of play for the ebrake shoes to move. Maybe it is CV related?
