Good point! Very good point.  

Maybe it was Wormtail. Right from PS/SS, Dumbledore has made a point of 
talking about the bond that's created when one wizard saves another's life. 
He used it to explain Snape saving Harry from Quirrell's enchanted broomstick 
spell because James once saved Snape's life. And later in PoA, to reassure 
Harry that he'd done the right thing in stopping Sirius and Lupin from 
killing Wormtail. I was surprised that there wasn't a bigger repercussion 
from that debt, as far as Wormtail trying to do something to save Harry in 
GoF. On the other hand, perhaps it's a moral thing rather than a magic thing, 
and we already know that Wormtail is sorely lacking in those. 

Having used Harry's blood to "rebirth" himself, Voldy too is now in Harry's 
life debt. Wonder how/if that's going to come back to haunt him?
