No, the order of `repeat regexp' and `regexp' is different:

(defcustom rs-test-1
[...]
  :type '(choice
          (const nil)
          regexp
          (repeat [...] regexp)))

(defcustom rs-test-2
[...]
  :type '(choice
          (repeat [...] regexp)
          (const nil)
          regexp))

Bye, Reiner.
