You could cheat and use the truncatelist callback which kicks of after 
the entrylist is sorted in blosxom_file_list_handler.

It'd look something like this:

from Pyblosxom.pyblosxom import blosxom_truncate_list_handler

def cb_truncatelist(args):
     entrylist = args["entry_list"]
     entrylist.reverse()
     args["entry_list"] = entrylist

     return blosxom_truncate_list_handler(args)


This fails miserably if you have other plugins that implement the 
truncatelist callback and want to do other things.  For example, I have 
a wbgpager plugin that implements truncatelist to provide paging and the 
above cb_truncatelist would hose that.

I almost added a sort callback for 1.5.  I'm pretty sure blosxom has 
one.  If any of you think it'd be useful to have, I can add it in a 
jiffy for 1.5.
