[R] pie initial angle

Dear all,

I'd like to produce a simple pie chart for a customer (I know it's bad but 
they insist), and I have some difficulties setting the initial angle.
For example:

pie(c(60, 40), init.angle=14)

and 

pie(c(80, 20), init.angle=338)

both present the slices in the same direction, where:

pie(c(60, 40))
pie(c(80, 20))

present the slices in different directions.

I read everything I could about init.angle argument, I even played with 
various formulas to compute it, but I just can't figure it out.
How can I preserve the desired *direction* of the slices?

Many thanks in advance,
Adrian
