$ gs872 -q -dBATCH -dSAFER -dQUIET -dNOPAUSE -sPAPERSIZE=letter -r1200x600 -sDEVICE=pbmraw -sOutputFile=test872.pbmraw test.ps

It's great.  No problem.

$ gs901 -q -dBATCH -dSAFER -dQUIET -dNOPAUSE -sPAPERSIZE=letter -r1200x600 -sDEVICE=pbmraw -sOutputFile=test901.pbmraw test.ps

Comment 4 Ken Sharp 2011-02-01 08:15:50 UTC 
The same result can be reproduced with any non-square resolution, eg 192x96 shows the issue at screen resolution.
Comment 5 Chris Liddell (chrisl) 2011-02-01 17:12:15 UTC 
fixed in r12089.
Comment 6 Till Kamppeter 2011-02-01 17:16:38 UTC 
Is this problem not simply caused by the fact that eog does not know about the non-squared resolution and so it displays the output picture with a squared resolution and therefore stretches the font in x direction?

On a printer with 1200x600 dpi this bitmap should come out correctly.

No, it is (was) a genuine problem with how we were passing the resolution to Freetype for rotated glyphs.

Confirmed.
Comment 9 Till Kamppeter 2011-02-01 17:28:47 UTC 
Sorry, ignore comment #6. My GS is built without Freetype (Ubuntu package). My output is therefore the correct one.
