At least psjoin conserves the orientation. The other potentially useful
thing I added to your script is that I parse the file to find a page= 
attribute (but that's just my own convention) that I put in the title block.
I use this to generate the scratch files as page# so that the final
output is properly sorted. For now it will break if there are more than
9 pages or if two different files have the same page number of if there
is no page number in a file. So it is too fragile to publish...
