Yes, I just wrote a Stata tip for that, which will appear in
the Stata Journal 11(2). A pre-publication draft can be seen
here: <http://www.maartenbuis.nl/publications/sigma_rho.html>.

Below is an example that applies the general idea of that tip
to -cmp- (which I got from SSC by typing in Stata 
-ssc install cmp, replace- and -ssc install ghk2, replace-.)

*------------- begin example -----------
cmp setup
webuse laborsup, clear
replace fem_inc = fem_inc - 10
cmp (kids = fem_inc male_educ) ///
    (fem_work = male_educ),    ///
    ind($cmp_cont $cmp_cont)   ///
    quietly
est store a

constraint 1 [atanhrho_12]_cons = `=atanh(0)'
cmp (kids = fem_inc male_educ) ///
    (fem_work = male_educ),    ///
    ind($cmp_cont $cmp_cont)   ///
    quietly constraint(1)
est store b

lrtest a b
*------------- end example -----------------
(For more on examples I sent to the Statalist see:

Hope this helps,
