What do you call cell's? A quick google search turned up that UMC provides
something they call Pcell's for instance
(http://www.cadence.com/datasheets/umc_foundry_process_design_kits.html).

Of course there's plenty of other tools out there which let you do custom
cell design, are you saying physical simulation using transistor level
process characterization has become so poor you have no hope of getting
custom designs right in one go anymore?
