My understanding is that Eccleston is now Ten, Tennant is Eleven, and Smith is Twelve. Though, judging by the in-episode explanation, we won't have to bother with new numbers. Hurt is That Gallifreyan Guy, Many of Whose Incarnations Call themselves "The Doctor", but he hasn't earned the title-- he's been internally disowned, so to speak.
If I had to speculate, I would guess that the Time Lords forced poor, gentle Eight to regenerate into something they could "work with" during the Time War. I'm laying odds on having some new McGann footage sometime before Nov. 24th.
