The short answer is "no". On the other hand, I don't think it would
be too hard to support such control constructs.
Let me reply with a question of my own... why do you need these
control operators to be natively supported? You can implement them
on top of call/cc fairly easily. Are you worried (obsessed?) with
performance?
