As Nick already noted, this is usually done with Fisher's z because the
sampling distribution of the correlation coefficient itelf is decidedly
unpleasant when correlations are different than 0 (it is not pivotal if
I recall right, and is notably skewed). Fisher's z is just arctanh and
the asymptotic SE of a Fisher's z transform is 1/sqrt(n-3).
James Steiger (Psychology, Vanderbilt) wrote a primer on comparing
correlation coefficients. See his web page. The most recent version of
the article I know of is:
J. Steiger (2004). Comparing correlations. In A. Maydeu-Olivares and
J.J. McArdle (eds.). Contempoary Psychometrics: A Fetschrift in Honor of
Roderick P. McDonald. Mahwah, NJ: LEA.

Are there any functions like corcor (H0: cor(x1x2)=cor(x1x3)) that test
cor(x1x2)=cor(x3x4)?
Thank you.
