If I'm not mistaken, the core has a break in it until the winding is finished. Beyond that it's just a simple matter of twisting correctly so the coils line up right - nothing massively more difficult than a sewing machine.

Toroid coil winders use pre-wound bobbins which are passed through the toroid, or a C-shaped shuttle which is linked around the toroid and then loaded with wire and unwound onto the toroid. See the ref. for a neat video of the latter. I doubt that gapped toroids would be used because (1) many coil windings cover the entire toroid and (2) inserting a patch segment would result in a much poorer magnetic circuit.
