My question is, what happens if I accidentally send regular bitcoins to an address holding XCP?

My question is, what happens if I accidentally send regular bitcoins to an address holding XCP?
[/quote]
It should be alright, as long as you own the Private Keys to that address(which you should anyway, if you are storing XCP in there). You can import the private keys into any Bitcoin clients and then transfer funds out of there.
So, I bought some XCP through the DEX:
http://blockscan.com/address.aspx?q=1JUXwDjh21yLkUhKNdggenexZK8XpeXTRx
* I checked the order book, found an offer @ 0.005 BTC per XCP.
* Posted a matching order (get 29 XCP, give 0.145 BTC.)
* Waited for a block
* Checked “counterpartyd market” again, saw that I had a matching order.
* It also showed as a matched order on blockscan.com.
* Used “counterpartyd btcpay” to pay for the matched order.
* Waited for another block.
Initially blockscan.com was showing a successful trade and a balance of 29 XCP in the above account.
Now it shows that the initial order TIMED OUT, and a balance of 0 XCP 
However:
[pre]~$ counterpartyd address 1JUXwDjh21yLkUhKNdggenexZK8XpeXTRx
Balances
±------±-------+
| Asset | Amount |
±------±-------+
| BTC | ?? |
| XCP | 29.0 |
±------±-------+
[/pre]My local counterpartyd still believes I have 29 XCP.
So, what’s going on here?

OK, somewhat alarming news: this doesn’t appear to be a bug with blockscan.com as I had hoped. See my cross post here, replied to by mtbitcoin (who runs blockscan.com):
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=406408.20
It sounds like his counterpartyd (develop branch) and my counterpartyd (cloned from master yesterday) don’t agree on the balance of:
http://blockscan.com/address.aspx?q=1JUXwDjh21yLkUhKNdggenexZK8XpeXTRx
His prints out a small bitcoin balance (which I can confirm exists) and zero XCP. Mine misses the bitcoin balance but prints out 29 XCP (as I believed I had bought.)
So this is essentially a consensus bug in the XCP protocol. Do we have a well specified copy of the protocol somewhere that I could turn to to determine which counterpartyd is behaving correctly? This stuff needs to be deterministic and public.
Also, aren’t trades supposed to be atomic? When I posted my order at block 284390 both my local counterpartyd and blockscan (http://blockscan.com/address.aspx?q=1JUXwDjh21yLkUhKNdggenexZK8XpeXTRx) were showing a matched order. I assumed it was safe to complete payment and sent the BTCPAY in the very next block (284391.) My (rudimentary) understanding of the protocol was that once we have an order match, published in the blockchain, that the BTCPAY was guaranteed to complete the trade.
I also bought 13 XCP at this address:
http://blockscan.com/address.aspx?q=1CJTDpHBvcQw4e7FCKzkT9j62PuXegWdYN
Which has suffered the same fate

The issue was that the order match that you tried to pay for doesn’t exist in the new version.
Cross-posted from https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=395761.msg4973865#msg4973865:
I just found a bad (and silly) bug in the order/bet matching code that was indeed preventing counterpartyd from sorting things properly. I’ve just update the code to sort the right way from block 284500 on, so this change will be backwards-compatible. However, you must update your clients now. The change has been pushed to both branches
