It does.

In the document:
http://www.postgis.fr/book/print/360

notice the line:

routing=# update rtest set
          cost=length(the_geom),rcost=length(the_geom);


The 'cost' and 'rcost' fields in the graph table represent the cost in 
each way.
If you chose a very high value in one of those fields, it will represent 
a one-way street.

http://www.postlbs.org/  has more information about this issue.
