Being a Lisp1 and having continuations made it a more natural fit.

What is c-lisp? Do you mean GNU CLISP, an implementation of the Common Lisp language? Do you mean Common Lisp in general? I think the main reason for using Scheme as a host instead of CL is that Arc is more similar to Scheme than CL.
