> And one more:

        x = (x * mult) ^ t;

also appears to work equally well.

The order of operations does not really matter: you can write the loop as

x *= mult   # Appears only in FNV-1
x ^= t[0]
x *= mult
x ^= t[1]
x *= mult
x ^= t[2]
x *= mult
x ^= t[3]
x *= mult  # Appears only in FNV-1a

The initial multiplication is equivalent to changing the initial value and the final multiplication is just a permutation of the outputs. None of those should really affect the quality of the hash.
