    Paul Graham's new Arc language uses .arc as an 
    extension

They are asking for trouble by using that extension.  They should
change the extension ASAP.

I am not sure whether we should try to make Emacs distinguish between
Arc programs and .arc archives.  If this can be done so reliably
that it never makes a mistake, then we may as well do it.  But if it
is not that reliable, better to tell all Arc programmers that they
should put -*-arc-language-*- in their files.

Is the implementation of Arc free software?
