That was my impression too, considering it came after 
Malfoy's "Mudblood" slur. I can't recall the exact book(s) where Ron 
has used some type of profanity, but I remember one passage said 
something to the effect that Hermione exclaimed "Ron!" after Ron used 
some sort of profanity. Then there was another passage in which 
Malfoy says something like "language Weasley".

lol, it would be amusing if Ron called Malfoy an, er..., 'anus' and 
Draco turned into one....
