Not that I remember, and I've seen the same
sorts of nudity described in movies for both
adults and children.  In fact, I have a
fleeting image of a young child (five or six)
running across a room, naked as a new born,
trying to escape the bath and his mother.
Can't remember what it's from but I remember
nearly falling off the couch laughing as I
watched it.  And there are stricter rules for
nudity for children then there are for
teens/adults.

<would similar nudity in GoF really matter or
cause
any real controversy?>

More then likely not, the image I get from
the idea of the scene would be the type of
nudity we see quite often over here when
people lose their clothes.  Granted the
movies are usually comedies for adults, but I
don't see why there would be an issue when
most kids have seen those movies as well.

I don't really think there will be full on
nudity in the scene, more of hints of it.
Bare thigh, shirtlessness, various other
parts of human anatomy that wouldn't earn an
R rating (which is what all of the directors
of the movies have to struggle with).

It's a fine tight rope of what you can show
and what you can't in the states, but I know
many directors, both famous and not who have
found ingenious ways of filming scenes to get
the message across without getting slammed
with hard ratings.  Heck, I've done it on
stage a few times.
