The Tome of Horrors is a pretty unique case. I expect there will be a ban on importing material from the
OGL to the
GSL (and there will definately be a backwards ban), but I don't think that can affect material one holds the copyright to. So, -I- won't be able to update the TOH to
4e, but Necromancer might. It depends on the agreement they had with
WotC. If they can go back to the original agreement, they should be all set. If they can't, and were expecting to update TOH material to the
GSL via the
OGL, they'll probably be out of luck.
In either case, I think they could update original monsters from TOH, TOH2, and TOH3 that they own (most of the entries in the latter two, I believe).
