I think that it must absolutely definitely be Gryffindor. I think the 
reason that the HBP storyline was originally in COS was that surely 
Hermione would have looked into Salazaar Slytherin's history whilst 
researching the COS. She would have then discovered what happened 
between the two great friends Slytherin and Gryffindor. I am sure 
that whatever took place will have some relevance to Harry's 
confrontation with Voldemort.
