So figured it out - GDM doesn't seem to honor xorg.conf somehow mostly - 
anyhow the GDM rotation can be achieved via kernel-arguments of:
video=DSI-1:panel_orientation=right_side_up

As a side note - I see some ...-xorg.conf.d directories in /gnu/store - 
so maybe X gets the conf there. How can I determine which of these the 
current system configuration is using - so I could play with the 
extra-special-file there?
