I've simply not implemented it yet! Someone gave me a new icon (a long time ago) that shows that it's a oneway road but that you can cycle in both directions, and I'm sorry to say that despite their efforts I haven't added the rules yet. If you want to keep track of things, then please add a ticket to http://trac.openstreetmap.org with the opencyclemap component.
