Is there a function in R to get the set of all unit vectors which are
orthogonal to a given vector?
No.
Building blocks should be there, though. The last n-1 columns of

Q <- qr.Q(qr(cbind(v, diag(nrow=length(v)))))

looks like a good start.

The full set is an n-1 dimensional sphere in n-space, spanned by those column 
vectors. If you need more than that representation, some further assembly is 
required.
