Alla:

I was pretty sure I read this quote from JKR, but now I cannot find 
it, so maybe somebody could help me.

I am also pretty sure that this was a 2006 interview, just do not 
know which one.

Unless I am majorly confused, I seem to remember that interviewer 
asked her about this ending , whether it is likely to happen that 
Harry will give up his magic at the end, or something to this effect.

I also seem to remember that the answer was that this is a good 
ending, but she does not want to be sued for stealing it from 
fanfiction or something like that.

Again, that is my vague recollection, I can be completely wrong, but 
I also was thinking that it debunked the "Harry gives up his magic at 
the end" ending completely in my mind.

Alla.
