True, we don't care where the needle points - we need polar north, it's
entirely dependent on longitude, and in our usual case, stere centred on
south pole, a simple special case.

I am curious; in the terminology of
The proj_factors(...) function, which a.o. returns the meridian convergence

Michael,
A general solution would have more appeal, although I suspect it will be
a bit more computation intensive as you'll probably have to transform to
invoke PROJ multiple times per grid point to compute the direction to
the North

It's easy but inefficient for us to do this after running gdal dem for our
