There is a Guile module (Sonya) that supports postfix
programming. All you have to do is wrap the program in:

(use-modules (sonya sonya))
(sonya

...

)

So if we want postfix we might as well use this :-) We get
functional and postfix, on programmer's choice, for the price
of one interpreter. I still think I prefer Python.
