SwiftForth comes with such a version.

Forth-2012 is not an ANSI standard.  It's just the result of our
committee (if it was an ANSI standard, it would also be the result of
our committee, but with an ANSI stamp).  Some people have suggested
going through the necessary paperwork to actually turn it into an ANSI
or ISO standard, but nothing in that direction has happened yet.
