All of those define procedures that accept multiple collections as rest
arguments, except guess which SRFI. ;-)

That being said, CL, Elisp, Guile, and probably most others which define
some -for-each, -map, and -fold operations on hash tables oblige with
the typical ordering as well.  CL and Elisp aren't exactly to be admired
in design decisions though.  Guile's might have been a historic accident
too, simply imitating others.

I'll note that Racket has 'proc' appear last in 'hash-for-each'.  And
Racket is a Scheme that cares a lot about clean design as far as I know.

The same goes for Gauche, though there the 'knil' for the -fold appears
after the 'kons'...
