ClearType takes advantage of the fact that LCDs have Red, Green, and Blue subpixels lined up side-by-side for subpixel-level horizontal antialiasing of text. If you look really closely at ClearType text, you will probably notice some very tiny color fringes on your text, with a hint of red to the left and blue to the right.

Technically, this algorithm could be designed to support both horizontal and vertical subpixel alignment. To my knowledge, it hasn't. It's surprising that there even exists an option to try and enable ClearType on a rotated screen.
EDIT: Correction. Apparently, Windows Mobile is SUPPOSED to support it:
"The software developer documentation for Windows CE states that ClearType for rotated screens is supported on that platform."
