Well, MzScheme has had a bytecode compiler and native code compiler for a long time. The earliest mention I can find right now is 2003: http://download.plt-scheme.org/doc/205/pdf/mzc.pdf

Here's some up-to-date documentation (and note that MzScheme is now known as Racket):

(I can't find the native code compiler. Did they make it internal to the JIT?)

If you just use Racket like an "interpreted language," as Arc does, then it will still compile each expression before executing it:
