No, because it is so easily done with the current POV...you can use a 
macro if you want.

#macro Rotate_Around(Rotation, Around)
    translate -Point
    rotate Rotation
    translate Point
#end

#macro VRotate_Around(Point, Rotation, Around)
    (vrotate(Point-Around, Rotation)+Around)
#end

If you use MegaPOV, you don't even need the second macro, you could just 
use the vtransform() function with the first one.
