Well, a quick little Python script seems to do the grunt-work for me:
##############################
import re
r = re.compile(r'\w+')
print ''.join(sorted(
(line for line in file("raw.txt")),
key=lambda s: tuple(reversed(r.findall(s)))
))
##############################
That is case-sensitive. It's a small bit more if you want it
case-insensitive:
##############################
import re
r = re.compile(r'\w+')
print ''.join(sorted(
(line for line in file("raw.txt")),
key=lambda s: tuple(w.upper() for w in reversed(r.findall(s)))
))
##############################

One of the tricky aspects of this is how you treat (or ignore)
differing punctuation. If you want the same words, but allowing for
varying punctuation, it's a lot more complex. That said, it sounded
like a fun afternoon challenge, so I threw together & attached a
quick program that accommodates all your options and
case-insensitivity needs :-)
It can be called on a pair of files, or you can pipe stdin and it
will return on stdout in case you want to call it from Vim with
:%! python revsort.py
to just operate on a sub-range of your file. Alternatively, from a
command-line, you can use
python revsort.py infile.txt outfile.txt
or, if you only want those where the last N words match, you can do
things like
python revsort.py -w 3 infile.txt outfile.txt
It was kinda fun, and hopefully the code is easy to follow. This
does assume that you have Python installed on your machine. It was
tested on 2.6, but should run on 2.4-2.7, and possibly on 3.x as well.
