I don't know if adding just the defines makes a lot of sense.
The SIGRT{MIN,MAX} are the range of signals for which POSIX Real-Time Signals behavior is supported, but we are missing the actual support for that in DragonFly (we're missing a sigqueue(2) system call for example).
This small page by Oracle has more info on POSIX Real-Time Signals:
