Other than Julia fractals and crackle offset, not that I know of. You 
should be able to render a 3D "slice" pretty easily with isosurfaces. 
Something like this:

#declare Box4DFn = function {max(abs(x), abs(y), abs(z), abs(t))}

Then you just have to come up with a rotation to compute the xyzt 
coordinates...a box with an axis aligned to the t axis isn't very 
interesting. It's either an ordinary box, or nothing. This page seems to 
have some info: http://www.geocities.com/igorelik/4rotat.html
