Thanks all.
The conclusion seems to be that an ordinary and stationary GPS receiver with a
single
omnidiretional antenna knows very well where satellites are relative to the
true North,
and where the true North is relative to satellites, but doesn't know (more
precisely:
can't indicate, as it lacks another reference) where satellites or the North
actually are.
Eventually this appears quite obvious.

You could (temporarily) install a structure that blocks reception in one
direction and then infer the meridian direction from the occultation of
SVs by the obstruction.
However the accuracy of the determination wont be high.
