That's not the same.  The first matches either // or \ at the start
of a filename, the latter matches either / or \ at the start of a
filename.

I don't know the context, though: maybe the second actually was what
was desired.  Or maybe it was // or \\ in which case we'd need
(string-match "^\(//\|\\\\\\\\\)")
