 An additional ugliness in the spec is that apparently
the -5 has to be the first and last voltage the chip
sees. I hope that this is not TOO critical...sometimes
I forget how "good" we have it now. 
It is critical.  I've destroyed 2708s in a system that did +12
first by error.  FYI: it doesnt matter howmuch before the
two positive supplies on that -5V is first on and last off.

4104s and 4116s (drams)  also had a similar requirement
as did many of the other three voltage parts.
