I was just at JKR's website and have found out that Neville's 
Birthday is not the same day as Harry's. I know that prophecy 
states "as the seventh month dies" and fortunately Harry's birthday 
is the last day of July. Which is definitely as the seventh month 
dies. Neville's birthday is near the end but not on the last day of 
the month. I have given Neville's Birthday below the spoiler space 
in case anyone wants to find it for themselve on her website. Does 
this mean that it could have been anyone whose parents defied 
Voldemort three times and was born after July 16th? It seems to me 
that the definition of that portion of the prophecy is a little vague 
now. Before it was obvious because the last day of the month is 
really when the month dies. 

What about the second prophecy made by Trelawney? Does this mean 
that the "servant" that returns to Voldemort have to be Wormtail or 
can it be Crouch? I don't have my book with me to double check the 
requirements in the second prophecy.

I was thinking the same thing about Nevilles birthday.  That was aways a burning question with me, when was his birthday?  I always wondered why it was never brought up, but now we know.  That being said, perhaps that makes it more logical that LV would go after Harry and not Neville (although he may have just gotten to Harry first). 
In regards to the 2nd prophecy;
"The Dark Lord lies alone and friendless, abandoned by his followers.  His servant had been chained these twelve years.  Tonight, before midnight, the servant will break free and set out to rejoin his master.  The Dark Lord will rise again with his servant's aid, greater and more terrible than he ever was.  Tonight...before midnight...the servant... will set out...to rejoin...his master..."   (PoA p324 AM)
If it didn't clearly state that it was going to happen that very night before midnight, it sounds like it could possibly be talking about Crouch,  but at this point, Crouch was in no condition to help.
Happy Birthday Neville
