That would be interesting.

Maybe one could put a Racket VM in FPGA.

Maybe also a possibility is to use layers of Racket syntax transformers over a lower layer that simply writes out a conventional VHDL or whatever file. This would be a more convenient way to implement higher-level languages for FPGAs than using conventional parser tools and such. You're using the Racket "syntax-rules", "syntax-parse", etc. to implement a compiler, but the person using this compiler is not actually programming in Racket (unless those layers of syntax transformers also implement the Racket language).
