Another curse scar?

Hello, 

after "pottering" around this great group I would like to have your 
opinion on something that has been nagging me while reading GoF. I 
have checked whether has already been dicussed, but have not found 
it. If it has, lead me to it!

Anyway, I have begun to wonder whether there is another person around 
with a curse scar like Harry's. At the start of GoF, Harry dreams 
about Voldemort and his scar starts to hurt. He wonders if he can do 
something against this but 'As far as he knew, he was the only living 
person to have survived a curse like Voldemort's' (page 24, GoF, UK 
paperback). 
When I read that I was immediately on the alert.

Later, after Harry had another dream during professor Trelawney's 
lesson, Trelawney says to him when she wants to help: '...rolling on 
the floor, clutching your scar! Come now Potter, I have experience in 
these matters!' (page 501, same book)
Although at first it seems that Trelawney merely means that she has 
experience in matter of having visions, it could also mean IMHO that 
she has dealt with such a scar before and therefore has experience.

Finally, there is the scene between Dumbledore and Fudge, which 
already has been discussed: 'You'll forgive me, Dumbledore, but I've 
heard of a curse scar acting as an alarm bell before...' (page 613, 
same book) 
Apparantly in the earlier versions Fudge says 'I've never heard...'. 
As I have a rather recent version of GoF, I assume that he has heard 
of a curse scar acting as an alarm bell, which for some (yet?) 
unknown reason was not an alarm at all (at least in Fudge's opinion).

If there is somebody else with a curse scar I expect this person to 
be at St. Mungo's. For one, that would be reason enough for Fudge to 
dismiss an 'alarm bell' coming from that direction, as he will 
certainly not believe someone who is insane. If Dumbledore is aware 
of this person, my guess is that he will keep quiet about it because 
the person in question is rather vulnerable or even better, related 
to one of teachers at Hogwarts (my pet theory, which is not quite 
crystallized -did I spell that right? Dutch is my native language- 
yet).

I don't have to ask you to treat my first question to you kindly, I 
have already noticed that you all do. That's why I like this group so 
very much!
