DFA problem


Can anyone tell me why these two rules are mutually exclusive?

   dfa_define_highlight_rule ("\".*[^\"]$", missquote, name);
   dfa_define_highlight_rule ("\\\\n", lbreak, name);
   
The first highlights all lines that has a double quote
somewhere in the line, followed by any characters and which 
are not terminated by a double quote. The second just highlights 
the newline literal "\n".

They work individually but not together and I don't understand
why.
