Personally, I think that the flayed piteous child-thing is the 
remnants of the Voldemort Horcrux that was in Harry. As Harry had 
his own soul and the part of the soul of Voldemort as the AK curse 
was cast. Harry's appears whole because his soul is intact, the 
part of Voldemort is just a fragment, and as Harry said in book 
2, what was left of him was foul and ugly.

 

James:

 

That makes sense,  but I have another suggestion.  The image of Dumbledore
does say that the soul part in Harry was destroyed during the attempted A.K.
of Harry. Both Harry and Voldemorte were knocked down from the spell, I
think the main soul components from the bodies of both were put temporarily
into the limbo thing. The Harry we read about in limbo was his soul, and the
flayed piteous child-thing was what was left of voldemorts main soul after
he's chipped bits off.
