It will take longer to recover if you have a 5 kt tail wind compared to a 5 kt head wind because you have to accelerate through the zero airspeed condition to get positive airspeed.
For VR you should have 0 kt airspeed, so its no matter were the wind comes from....
Just imagine, you do that in IMC with no GS Indication...
