Problems with per-page orientation

[Josh Litherland]

I have observed that some older versions of ghostscript will automatically
orient all pages in "portrait" orientation when using the tiffg3 output
driver.  In more recent versions this behavior has changed, which in
particular makes Hylafax unhappy, so I'm trying to revert it.
I've particularly been working with the ghostscript packages included in
CentOS 5.x, which are based around ghostscript 8.15.2.  I've isolated the
difference in behavior to this patch:

<http://pastebin.com/f148a6963>I'm not qualified to categorize this change
as either a regression bug or just a "change"; all I know is that it's
breaking my hylafax configuration.  =)  I note that the new behavior of the
code is still present in much more recent versions of ghostscript.
I suppose I'm looking for some clarity on what exactly is going on in this
change, and whether there's a way I can change my ghostscript command line
to switch back on the automatic orientation fixing to make Hylafax happy?
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide, even if it's just to punt me
to a different list.  =)
