I've done this with ldap by adding them in sources.php and then
in attributes.php both files are in horde/turba/config.  In ldap
an entry looks something like the following:
in sources.php I have the ldap attribute "l" assigned to
homeCity.
'homeCity' => 'l',

in attributes.php it for the same I have:

$attributes['homeCity'] = array(
     'label' => _("Home City"),
     'type' => 'text',
     'required' => false
);

They must appear in both files and your database, at least that
is the way it is in ldap.

I hope this gets you started.
