Ok, some futher observations:
OpenLayers POSTs the following to FeatureServer -- notice the correct CRS:
"crs":{"type":"EPSG","properties":{"code":32632}}

And FeatureServer responds -- without CRS:
"crs": {"type": "none", "properties": {"info": "No CRS information has
been provided with this data."}}

Any ideas?
