I've got a custom section family that needs to have the label rotate to either 0 or 90 degrees depending on the direction of the arrow. I checked "rotate with component" in the "family category and parameters" but it didn't change anything.

Is there another way to do this?

I had the same issue with a custom section tag and couldn't figure it out. Supposedly there is a way to use a group and associate it with a rotation parameter but I have not figured that out either. It seem that the section symbol is meant to only allow the text to be read "upright". I have been searching around for an answer to this issue but haven't found anything yet. Sorry

I was able to do this in Revit 2011. You open up the section tail or head and edit it to make the text display the way you want it too. To open the family go file-project-family-then click on anotations and make sure you select the correct file that you have already loaded into your section cut symbol. Then edit it and load it into the family but when you close out of window make sure to save your changes to a different file name to make sure it does not affect your family.
