sigh... I hate it when this happens.

I had the option in the wrong place.  This works:

Section "Screen"
    Identifier     "Screen0"
    Device         "Device0"
    Monitor        "Monitor0"
    DefaultDepth    24
    Option         "RandRRotation" "on"
    Option         "TwinView" "0"
    Option         "TwinViewXineramaInfoOrder" "CRT-0"
    Option         "metamodes" "1920x1200 +0+0; 1024x768 +0+0; 800x600 +0+0; 640
x480 +0+0"
    SubSection     "Display"
        Depth       24
    EndSubSection


w/ "xrandr -o left"

It also enables the rotation panel in the nvidia-settings tool.  

Have Fun!
