Some combination of the "read" builtin plus calling "exec" from inside
the signal handler is causing the HUP signal to remain blocked across
the "exec" -- and re-installing the trap doesn't unblock it.

If I replace the read-loop with

    sleep 3
    kill -1 $$

then the process restarts itself every 3 seconds as expected.

So, you aren't doing anything explicitly wrong.
