how many scheme compilers do you think have been written?
Hundreds, this is one of the most famous functional programming exercises (mostly thanks to SICP). Just check https://github.com/search?q=scheme%20compiler&type=repositor... (858 results on github)
Probably many SICP or "Write Yourself A Scheme" readers have pushed basic scheme compilers to GH.
