the cupcake C library already supports real-time timers through timer_create(). real-time signals are a different thing and they are not currently supported.
For the record, with other C libraries, not all of SIGRTMIN .. SIGRTMAX is available to application-defined purposes. The implementation usually reserves a few signals for its own use. Which one exactly depends on the C library you're using, so things aren't exactly too portable here.
