To elaborate on Bjoern's comments, if script elements point to external
JavaScript, then the timing of the HTTP requests to pull down the various
JavaScript files is uncertain, and thus other elements in the DOM tree
might have been parsed and processed before the script logic associated
with a given script element is executed.
I assume that HTML has the same limitation as SVG in this regard. (If not,
then SVG should include whatever feature that HTML has.)

There is no way. The only possible way would be to get the last element
in document order during progressive load. Since SVG 1.1 does not define
the exact processing in this case, and scripts might be run at other
points in time this is genuinely impossible without additional features.
