Perhaps, as Lilian points out, with Harry's blood in LV's veins, 
Wormtail now owes a life debt to his master. I would also think LV 
would have the opportunity to receive protection at Privet Drive, but 
only if Petunia consented to take him in to live (gack, sorry for the 
mental images). Fortunately, that seems unlikely, although I'm 
suddenly reminded of a piece of vampire lore (it's in _Salem's_Lot_ 
by Stephen King, anyway) which says that a vampire cannot enter 
someone's house until he's invited in.

If Wormtail owes life debts to both Harry and LV, might that cause
some strange effect in the final showdown? What happens when you owe
a life debt to two people, and they are engaged in a battle to the
death? Does LV know the details of Harry's Privet Drive protection,
or will he learn them, and will he show up on the doorstep one day,
looking to rent a room?

I think you're right about Voldemort getting protection at Privet 
Drive because of his blood! I bet Voldemort is going to get into the 
Dursley house this way. It's going to be Harry's shortest stay at 
Privet Drive because it's going to get ugly at that house...
