No, not at this point.  But as a workaround (assuming we are talking about 
socket based communication (udp/tcp)) you can have the program running as a 
special user or group and use pf or ipfw to queue traffic from this user/ 
group.  Note that pf needs debug.mpsafenet=0 for this to work properly.  ipfw 
has the same problem in 5.3R but is fixed in CURRENT and *maybe* RELENG_5 - 
I'll let others speak on that one.
