When could Mozilla keep to the plan?... It's now targeted to early 2011.

In over 25 years of doing SW development the only way I've seen products ship to plan is either by dropping features or shipping with known bugs. Adobe is a prime example of the latter. The more typical approach is to keep the plan a secret. :-$

The bugs that keep getting added are crashes or regressions so if anything it's best it is those types of bugs that are added and fixed quickly rather than a different bug that takes ages to be fixed and delays beta 8 for weeks.
