Bill took his 'standard' from a can of Diet Coke, according to his
earlier post; but I have in front of me a (UK) can of Diet Coke, and
the 'recycle' logo is SYMMETRICAL!  All three arrows go from 'behind'
to 'in front' - just like the one printed by John's recycle2.ps file.
A quick check around the office shows that ALL the products here
bearing a 'recycle' logo - drinks bottles, toner cartridges, toilet
roll wrapper, C++ modules (:-) - use this same symmetrical logo.

So this could be a matter of national standards not matching; perhaps
some other people around the world could tell us what their 'recycle'
logo looks like, for comparison.
