Firstly some evidence regarding Horcruxes;
1. No-one had ever made more than one Horcrux before, and therefore 
is it fair to assume that Voldemort would not believe that anyone 
could guess he had more than one (R.A.B. certainly thinks it's just 
the one)
2. Bearing in mind all the evidence that links Harry to Voldemort, 
the obvious deduction is that Harry IS a Horcrux. I am sure that 
Voldemort would think that DD would make that guess too.

So from Voldemort's point of view, is it fair to say that he would 
think that DD would believe that he only had one Horcrux, and this 
was Harry.

Now think back to the MOM scene at the end of OOTP. Voldemort 
possesses Harry and comments, 'if death is nothing Dumbledore, kill 
the boy'.

He is offering Dumbledore the chance to kill Voldemort and his 
Horcrux with one Avada Kedavra (although Voldemort would actually 
have had several other Horcruxes to fall back on!)

To me, this suggests that not only is Harry a Horcrux, but since 
Voldemort is aware of this, probably an intentional Horcrux!
