Restartable conditions don't require any VM support that isn't also needed for normal exceptions. Even in CL implementations they're simply built on top of the normal non-local control flow construct (throw/catch) and dynamically scoped variables. And the latter are easy to implement in terms of try-finally even if not supported natively.
The tricky bit with restartable conditions is that you need to support them everywhere, or they're pretty useless. So they aren't going to be very interesting in a multi-language environment like the JVM even if they're easy to implement.
