Disabling Avast plugin does not change anything. Even creating a new profile in 27b4 doesn't change the behaviour.

Does about:permissions show anything special for the maps.google.com domain?

Share location shows always ask. Setting it to allow makes no difference.

It neither works here. http://html5demos.com/geo
I restored a back-upped profile from my now dead laptop and with this profile geolocation works. If FF26 makes a new profile then it does not work. Bit disappointing there has been no real response on this bug, looks like this has been broken for a while... http://www.ghacks.net/2013/10/04/firefoxs-geolocation-feature-appears-broken-recent-versions/ Does this get tested pre-release? Looks like a candidate to be added to smoke tests if not.
