It must not change anything. However, it *could* be, that it has 
happened (with a Time-Turner?) - maybe someone *did* tell him before 
he married the witch. A prediction saying that a son by a witch will 
kill him and later dig up his bones. A prediction he believed. So, 
after that, when he found out being married to a witch, he abandoned 
her in attempt to prevent the prediction. Unknown to him, the wife 
was already pregnant. She didn't know about the prediction, but 
assumed it was ONLY because of her magic...

When Tom Marvolo Riddle then came to kill his father, he knew that 
the prediction would be fulfilled...

So - there's two flaws in the potion - the bones weren't 
*unknowingly* given *and* servant had life-debt to the enemy...
But what does this cause? It seemed to restore Voldemort as it was? 
Will Voldemort be destroyed if Harry lasts long enough for Tom Riddle 
to come out of the wand, saying something like "Give be back my 
bones, boy"???
