Bug#770088: iceweasel: wikipedia.com cookie after clean start

[Ian Zimmerman]

Package: iceweasel
Version: 31.2.0esr-3~deb7u1
Severity: normal

I have (of course) set the "Clear History when exiting Iceweasel" option
including cookies, and in addition cookies are kept "until I close
Iceweasel".  Also, in the about.config page, geo.enabled is false.
Nonetheless, right after I start Iceweasel, with a single empty tab (no
home page), Show Cookies lists a wikipedia.org cookie named "GeoIP".
