Actually, I was thinking that it might have been about Voldemort's 
first defeat.  This most recent prediction involved very current 
events (the Dark Lord's servent would return to him asap, and the 
Dark Lord would return to power).  So in light of the past 
prediction, it could've also been a 'current event' sort of thing, a 
la: [cue Trelawney's creepy real-trance voice] "a child/a Potter/(if 
this is the case and Dumbledore knows it) the heir of Gryffindor will 
defeat the Dark Lord, forcing him into a period of powerlessness and 
hiding" or something of that nature.
