I remember an interview (probably from the 80s) where he expressed interest scoring somebody else's film if they asked him.
He definitely mentioned it when promoting one of his LOST THEMES albums.

As much as I love TD Firestarter, it seems someone temped it with Alan Parson’s Voyager from Pyramid as it has the same chord changes and rhythmic figures.

Also Foreigner's Waiting For A Girl Like You may have been used as a temp:

Dissappointing that Tangerine Dream didn't get the gig, but not surprising. At least I hope that Carpenter will use some of TDs themes in the new score.
Nooo this is a new movie, why rethread something old then? RDs score was asome in the 80´s version, but this is something almost 40 years later and TDs music is in the 80´s (and should stay there)
Carpenter proved with his music that he has evolved and it´s cool that he does music to other movies now...

Just got out of the film and - well, it's okay, with good fire sequences. It's also about 20 minutes shorter than the earlier film. But I think the 1984 version has it by a hair, if only for the last 20 minutes of spectacular fireball action. The new score is very Carpenter and it's a more than decent enough listen by itself - BackLot have put it all up on YouTube and I'm listening now - though Prince Of Darkness still remains my favourite of his scores. I certainly wouldn't say no if there's a CD release (ah, for the days when this would be an automatic Varese title!).
(Incidentally, as per the question of whether he's ever scored other peoples' films - the Carpenter/Carpenter/Davies trio did the main title music for STUDIO 666, the Foo Fighters horror movie that came out earlier this year.)

Indeed it was chilling & fun with JC team scoring but the 1984 movie has my vote.
