  Comments:
死んでも反対(する) was given as an example of sense 2 but the glosses imply that a negative verb follows.
I've tried to make it more general so that now it's just a figurative version of sense 1.

GG5: 死んでも 〔死を賭(と)しても〕 at the risk of one's life; even if it should cost one's life; 〔死後までも〕 even after one's death
  Comments:
Given that GG5 only has the more literal meaning, maybe this should be a full sense?
