There is also an implementation of this method in two functions in ape, see:

?pic.ortho
?varCompPhylip

There are examples with simulated data in both help pages. The second function requires PHYLIP (similarly to Rphylip) .

There is also my C program Contrast, which implements a method from a
2008 paper I wrote:

Felsenstein, J.  2008.  Comparative methods with sampling error and
within-species variation: contrasts revisited and revised. American
Naturalist 171: 713-725.

This estimates the within-species covariances and the between-species
evolutionary variances.    It is not an R program but can be accessed
through Liam Revell's package Rphylip, if you also have my (non-R)
package PHYLIP installed.

A pretty good (but not ML) estimate of the within-species phenotypic
variance can be gotten by pooling the within-species sampling error.
The harder part is using that to correct one's estimate of the
covariances of the between-species change, which using ordinary
methods will have some within-species variation mixed in.
