If you want to stub role foo, you can simply write
role foo[Int $a, Int $b, Int $c] { }
or with some other parametrization signature that's never used anywhere.
Role declarations are "multi" just like multi subs, and writing down one
multi role that's never used makes the name known to Rakudo.
That's a bit of an ugly hack, but it worked for me so far.
