Having had my fair share of odd behavior with CUPS, I would lean toward 
that as the culprit.  There are several different filters that get used 
depending on the mime type provided.  For instance, on SL 5, texttopaps 
did very bad things, causing me to force texttops for text/plain 
processing.  Some of these filters have been known to double-rotate, 
which might be what you are experiencing.  It might also be worth 
skimming through the ppd for the printer to see if the paper definitions 
or orientation are wrong.  If the ppd contains a page orientation, and 
the program specifies a rotation, this can also lead to incorrect 
orientation.
