That's exactly what I thought, too.  My only misgiving in that respect
is that if LV was going to kill Harry, making him a Horcrux makes no
sense.  I suppose it's possible that LV -didn't- use AK on Harry, but
tried to make him into a Horcrux. Ten why would LV get blasted out of
his body by a spell designed to invest part of his soul in a horcrux?

You're right though - the "gleam of triumph" has yet to be fully
explained, and eliminating one Horcrux would be one explanation.
