ibchawz:

Since hand bandages seem to be in short supply, I'll just grab the 
nearest lamp and prepare to repeated bash my head.  This one is 
relatively easy to work out.  The logical flow of events is as 
follows:

1.  LV murders James Potter.
2.  LV murders Lily Potter (Or rather Lily sacrifices herself as 
opposed to chosing to step aside).
3.  LV attempts to murder Harry Potter, but the spell rebounds due to 
Lily's sacrifice.  

Harry would not have the scar at this point in time because LV has 
not attempted to murder him yet.  The scar is a by-product of the 
rebounded AK.
