I don't have NVidia hardware to test this, but what if you configure the
displays "on top of each other" (TwinViewOrientation? - or whatever the
option is called) and rotate then?

(The sis driver makes 1600x1200 x 2 above/below each other to 2400x1600
after rotation and treats the output devices as right/left of each
other. My guess would be that the nvidia driver does the same thing.)
