I agree with Mike that it is not necessary to use nested lists for breadcrumb menus. In a main menu with items and sub items nested list should be used for the benefit of screen readers, etc. But a breadcrumb trail is perfectly understandable for all without using nested lists. I would even say that it is not necessary to use list elements for a simple breadcrumb menu. Too few items and too informal in nature. At least if a main menu also exists. We should most often go for the simplest solution that is more than good enough. Just because we spot a relationship it is not always necessary or overkill to mark it up as such.
