Besides the original paper, see this old comment: [Why are OCaml function arguments evaluated right-to-left?](https://discuss.ocaml.org/t/why-are-ocaml-function-arguments-evaluated-right-to-left/1214/3)

As for documentation, I’ve seen some unpublished notes that describe this behavior for various language constructs, including records and labeled arguments. I could probably get the author to post them.
