mach-o __TEXT segment layed out backwards?

Hi All,

I've been looking around mach-o executables and I noticed that the
__TEXT segment seems to be layed out backwards, i.e. the last section
ends at the end of the segment and the other sections go backwards
from that.

Can someone explain to me why this is?

Also on a related note is it possible to relocate the __text section
post link?  Well obviously it can be moved, but all the data/function
pointers will be screwed up so I guess the better question is after
link and after relocation can the __text ptrs be fixed?
