Not me.

Cuis is _very_ portable.  You will need to build an OpenSmalltalk VM to 
run it.

I suspect you should be able to use a Linux build for your CPU.

   git clone --depth 1  https://github.com/OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm
then
   scripts/updateSCCSVersions
   cd opensmalltalk-vm/build/linux<whatever>/squeak.stack.spur/build/
   ./mvm

You may need to play a bit with the mvm build script to get the proper 
compiler flags set.

Since the vm runs on intel (x86), arm (32 & 64 bit) and RISC-V (64 bit), 
there are many examples to look at.

Once the VM comnpiles, you should be able to
   git clone https://github.com/Cuis-Smalltalk/Cuis-Smalltalk-Dev
and use the vm to run an image.

You should probably sign up for the vm developer's email group for help 
and sharing:
   vm-dev at lists.squeakfoundation.org
