Thinking about it, it's the thumbnail creation that is the issue - not the photo display. Does anyone know which module is used for that?

Cameras store the raw file data the same orientation regardless of the cameras orientation. Consider a film camera, if you turn it upside down the negative for that image is upside down relative to the other negatives. Same thing applies with digital images but they will use EXIF orientation to flag "this end up". Browsers and image editing software support this and will rotate the raw file data to correct orientation for display.
That said if the image is not being resized by pluplaod that can cause the thumbnail to have wrong orientation and would be phpBB bug. The full size image should be correct since it has not been manipulated and the browser will correctly display it.
When you have set max dimensions the image is being resized by plupload and it will cause the problem.
