Haha, I found a hack (using the letter "l"):
plot(0,0,main=expression(italic(X)[1]^bolditalic("l")))

To my eye, this is a bit neater:
expression(italic(X)[1]^bold("/"))

Here are a couple more possibilities:
plot(0, 0, main = expression(italic(X)[1]^bold(scriptscriptstyle("/"))))
plot(0, 0, main = expression(italic(X)[1]^bolditalic(scriptscriptstyle("/"))))
The latter increases the angle a tad.

Why cheat when you can use a *real* prime character: plot(0, 0, main=expression(paste(italic(X)[1],"\u2032")))
