The thing is, it’s not a problem or ordering.  It’s just that only one
TR is supposed to claim a given character.

Looking at the code, it’s not actually clear which one wins anyway,
because there are two cases: the ‘eightbit_char_to_tr_map’ mapping, and
the other case (see ‘scm_call_reader’.)  I think we cannot really
document an ordering without exposing too many implementation details
and without limiting future changes.

HTH,
