Right.  So if it's the latter, then why not check BACK at some point 
during the 10 years and make sure it was done?  Kind of like what 
Lupinlore was arguing.  Or if he *did* check back, why did he decide 
it didn't matter that they didn't tell Harry the story?  And if DD 
knew the Dursleys not filled Harry in, why was Hagrid so shocked to 
learn that?

See?  I'm back to the same question:  DID Dumbledore check on Harry 
in those 10 years or not?  I *want* to believe that he did and found 
that the risks there were still less than the risks of moving him to 
the WW, and that he must have decided it didn't matter if Harry 
didn't know the true story, but I'm not sure we know yet whether he 
did do much checking on Harry....
