There area lot of unknowns.  DD originally told Harry that the
evesdropper was caught and thrown out.  DD's pensive memory showed the
memory without interuption.  I would think that someone being caught
outside the door in the middle of the prophecy would have provided
enough of a distraction to interupt the memory.  Yet the memory is
unbroken.    (That also assumes that DD didn't edit the memory afterwards)

There is so much just below the surface we need to find out in Book 7.
