getting some of Harry's blood wouldn't fill the bill, would it? 


A thought has been brewing for a while.  The "re-embodiment" 
potion/spell/whatever called for the "blood of an enemy, forcibly 
taken."  Harry was very well tied up at the time Wormtail took his 
blood, and although he was "struggling helplessly" he couldn't put up 
much of a fight so that nothing was too forcibly taken.  I wonder if 
it was this little detail that (I know, "so we're back to *that* 
again?" <sigh>) caused that curious gleam of triumph in Dumledore's 
eye.
