Convert it to a list and then reverse the list:

    L = list(iterator)
    L.reverse()
    
This means that the contents must fit in memory, but that's probably OK; if
you want to read the lines of a 2-gigabyte file in reverse order, you're
better off writing some custom code for reading the file.
