AFAIR, the landscape/portrait feature in .eps export disappeared
between xfig3.1 and xfig 3.2 (I should say fig2dev rather than xfig):
the figure is exported as it is in the window (and the orientation
option disappeared from the menu).
The rotating behaviour may thus depend on the version of xfig.
If it comes from 3.1 behaviour, it is worth upgrading I think,
because I understood that 3.2 was the LAST release.
