Robert,

SRS is specified in the client request.

Reprojection can (and should) be done by the server. WFS and WMS servers 
are obliged to publish the SRSs they support and deliver data in the SRS 
requested by the client.

In a GET URL, you can specify this as an option, SRSNAME for WFS and SRS 
for WMS. For example:

WFS: SRSNAME=EPSG:4283
WMS: SRS=EPSG:4283

You must read these two pages to learn about these services, and axis 
ordering in particular:
http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/services/wfs/basics.html
http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/services/wms/basics.html

I haven't tried WFS with shapefile output, but I expect it does The Most 
Sensible Thing.

Kind regards,
Ben.
