Ha ha, you certainly made a large number of assumptions there :-p
No, GeoServer does does not do any ortorectification on the fly, gdal or
not.

As Daniele suggested, you should fix those files using gdalwarp, so that
they are truly rectified.
Or, if you really want GeoServer to follow the path you imagined, you can
either add features to it yourself, the code is there for everybody, or
check commercial support (http://geoserver.org/support/) to have someone do
it for you

Cheers
Andrea
