To begin debugging this sort of problem, replace 'fill' with 'stroke'
to see the outline of the area PostScript is filling for you.  If you
do this, you see that your second arc:

	0 0 InRadius 0 360 arcn

doesn't appear at all.  This is because, for arcn, you reverse those
last two arguments; the arc should run from 360 to 0.  So:

	0 0 InRadius 360 0 arcn

does what you expect (under Adobe PostScript).
