--- Comment #4 from Andrew Pinski <pinskia at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
I think the bug is in the assembler or the linker:
.L22:
        .word   myhandler2-1



Basically what is happening is:
(__handler != ((__sighandler_t) 2)) && (__handler != ((__sighandler_t)
SIG_DFL))

is converted to:

(((size_t)__handler)-1) <= 1

And then GCC emits myhandler2-1 in the constant pool which is correct but the
assembler/linker decides to put 0x200003a7 in that location (See the .L22
above) and then GCC adds +1 to it to try to make it myhandler2 (again).

This is why using SIG_DFL of 5 works, it is just by accident because GCC
decides not to do the transformation or put myhandler2-1 in the constant pool.

Again I think this is an assembler/linker issue of putting the wrong value for

.L22:
        .word   myhandler2-1
