Has is occurred to anyone that the relationship between Harry's wand 
and Voldemort's wand may not be sheer coincidence?  There has been a 
lot of discussion about the hint at the end of GoF that Dumbledore 
was aware of the protection Harry's blood had given him.  If 
Dumbledore knew that, I would expect that he would also have known 
what happens when two related wands do battle.

Knowing the prophesy, might Dumbledore have commissioned the second 
wand using Fawkes' tail feather?  It wouldn't be that much of a 
stretch to expect that the wand would eventually choose Harry, given 
the other links between Harry and Voldemort.  This would be simply 
once more protection that Dumbledore was able to convey to Harry.  I 
don't think it has been said anywhere that the two wands were created 
at the same time.
