[OS X TeX] Is this geometry behavior correct?

Howdy,

If I process the following file with pdflatex the final pdf is  
properly in landscape mode. If I use latex+ghostscript it is only in  
landscape mode if I provide the [dvips] option to the \usepackage 
{geometry} call.

\documentclass[10pt, landscape]{article}
\usepackage{geometry}
\begin{document}
This is in landscape!?
\end{document}

I thought the geometry package automatically determined if one was in  
dvi mode and picked the proper driver.

This is with geometry v3.2, which also the current version on CTAN  
and has been around for quite a long time.

Good Luck,
