Right. I should have looked closer.

I've been trying many things in TeXShop. No luck. The actual  
distiller used by altpdflatex is:

     distillerprog="ps2pdf13"

which turns eventually into /usr/local/bin/ps2pdfwr. Given ps2pdf  
doesn't accept options (or at least not in a syntax understandable by  
me) I finally edited this ps2pdfwr, using "sudo pico" in Terminal and  
adding the option -dAutoRotatePages=/None, so that the last line of  
this file became:

     exec $GS_EXECUTABLE $OPTIONS -q -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH - 
dAutoRotatePages=/None -sDEVICE=pdfwrite "-sOutputFile=$outfile"  
$OPTIONS -c .setpdfwrite -f "$infile"

Tested the result with the pstricks example in your first message:

Eureka! That works.
