   Yes, but not professionally, only for "recreational purposes".

   It's Marcel van der Veer's Genie "compiler-interpreter" (as he   
   calls it). The software is high quality. It's still maintained   
   (although it seems to not need much maintenance). And, yes,   
   it's publicly available (including a 700 page documentation).[*]
