Something fishy going on with the Signals enum. If that's fixed then the
regression you pointed out will be fixed as well, as the new method simply
uses enum's `.value` to get the signal number:

    <Zoffix__> c: 79b8ab9d3f^,79b8ab9d3f,HEAD say SIGUSR1.Numeric; say 
SIGUSR1.value; say $*KERNEL.signal: SIGUSR1
    <committable6> Zoffix__, ¦79b8ab9d3f^: «30␤30␤10» ¦79b8ab9,HEAD(cc6c055): 
«30␤30␤30»
