Unwind-protect? Isn't that a Common Lisp thing? Sounds like you got
the wrong mailing list :)

It's true though that Clojure has no return, break or continue... They
are imperative constructs, and Clojure is mostly functional. As far as
I know, the closest thing to unwind-protect is probably the finally
clause of a try-catch-finally form, but I don't think there's any way
to break out from inside a try block without executing the finally
code.
