Yes
(If there was a previous mail, it was incomplete, sorry)

I think we want to catch "2 (back)slashes followed by a letter"
<http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa365247%28v=vs.85%29.aspx>

#define is_unc_path(path) ((is_dir_sep(path)[0]) && is_dir_sep((path)[1]) && isalpha((path[2])))

Then we need 
#define is_relative_path(path)  (((path)[0]) && !is_dir_sep((path)[1]))

And may be like this:

static int have_same_root(const char *path1, const char *path2)
{
	int is_abs1, is_abs2;

	is_abs1 = is_absolute_path(path1);
	is_abs2 = is_absolute_path(path2);
	if (is_abs1 && is_abs2) {
		if (is_unc_path(path1) && !is_relative_path(path2))
			return 0;
		if (!is_relative_path(path1) && is_unc_path(path2))
			return 0;
		return tolower(path1[0]) == tolower(path2[0]);
	} else {
		return !is_abs1 && !is_abs2;
	}
}

Could that work?
