Not yet. I think there is enough momentum now that there will be in
the next major release.

Do you want an actual hob (spiral, needs the right machine, or EMC2
being clever) or a single-tooth profile cutter?

is a hob but needs a setup like: http://youtu.be/ZhICrb0Tbn4 In fact,
that is where I bought the hob from.
http://www.rdgtools.co.uk/acatalog/INVOLUTE_GEAR_CUTTERS__SET_S_AND_INDIVIDUAL_.html
are involute profile cutters.

For cutting internal gears, I have no idea. That seems to be even more
specialised. You can buy them, which might be cheaper:

I can consolidate a UK order, then ship on to LV.
