Yes. Pandoc <http://sophos.berkeley.edu/macfarlane/pandoc> does "real" parsing, using Haskell's Parsec library of parser combinators. I suppose one might quibble about whether it counts as an "implementation" of markdown; it comes close to full compatibility, but differs from standard markdown on a few edge cases (described in the documentation), and also provides a few syntax extensions. With some effort, I suppose, a "full compatibility" mode could be added.
