Dysis:
This would be true, but DD mentions that Harry is also protected by
an "ancient magic" that LV "has neglected" (or something to that
effect; I don't have my books with me ^^;;). Lily might have cast
the special spell on Harry, in the form of an Eihwaz rune. The rune
protects against dark magic. It may not have been visible at first,
but after LV's spell reflected off of Harry, then it became visible -
- as a scar, of course.
