Not a built-in, but...

(defmacro for-each [f x] `(doseq [item# ~x] (~f item#)))

I suppose this solution is blindingly obvious though.

Also, I would be curious if there's any significant performance
difference using (dorun (map ...)) as I assume an intermediate result
is built and then thrown away. Or perhaps it's insignificant compared
to what the unspecified function does that is passed to map for
performing the side-effect work..
