[pstricks] page orientation turned to landscape for no good reason?

Try the A3-format in Ghostcript (and only there).

I'm pasting a minimal example below of a 'figure' reduced to two \rput entries at 90 degrees, which for some reason turns the page orientation to landscape? But works OK if showgrid is true.

You may have run into ghostscript's page orientation behavio(u)r. From the documentation:

By default Ghostscript determines viewing page orientation based on the dominant text orientation on the page. Sometimes, when the page has text in several orientations or has no text at all, wrong orientation can be selected.

You might try running gs with the option -dAutoRotatePages=/None
