Bumping this question to see if anyone has a workaround -
I recently have been wishing to search for keywords and order
the results in reverse timestamp order.

This sounds like a fairly useful and common feature, so I think
there must be something I'm configuring incorrectly.  I am able
to reproduce the problem using a fairly clean Emacs install (a
VM with no customizations).

Thanks,
--Nate
