The new template needs a navigation area for breadcrumbs and these should be
retro-fitted across the site.

For instance, http://www.mozilla.org/mailnews/spam-howto.html is three or more
clicks from http://www.mozilla.org/mailnews/spam.html.  

The new mozilla.org homepage is very nice, but it doesn't yet reveal a method to
move forward with improving the usability of the existing mozilla.org content. 
Providing a common location in the header (or elsewhere) for you are here and
that's generally in this direction from home (eg. breadcrumbs) is the cheapest
and most effective technique I can come up with.  

The H1 that head the content of each interior page could be transformed into
breadcrumbs and styled to fit the template.

How about the general architecture of the site? Is there a common architecture
for it or is it developing ad hoc. And if so, is that a problem?

Is this fixed now?  Now that beta site is live, I think it is.

I think so.  In the same way that, if there was a memo on some airline
maintenance dude's desk on 9/10/91 saying "fix that cockpit doorhandle that
doesn't shut tight" would be considered solved now :)
