You know, this may be the answer to the riddle. If the secret was phrased to 
be "the Potters are hiding at [location]" once they were dead, they were no 
longer hiding. With the [location] destroyed, baby Harry was no longer able to 
hide there. Once baby Harry been moved, he was no longer at [location] and was 
no longer covered by the FC. We know DD montored the mugle news, so he would 
have heard of the distruction of [location] and whould have known it had some 
conenction with the Potters. When he learned of LV's near destruction, he knew 
something had happened to the Potters and sent Hagrid to [location] where he 
picked up baby Harry.

Anyone have any better ideas?
