Description

When a project is built using Xcode 6 for IOS 8 the geolocation plugin seems to be failing.

I created a mobilespec project from Master and first noticed that the geolocation automated tests were failing. I then tried the geolocadtion manual tests which also failed.
I then created a sample plain Cordova project and tried to see if I could use getCurrentPosition(..). The first call to it did nothing but subsequent calls saw it returning the error callback.

Geolocation works for both mobilespec and my sample project if I use Xcode 5.1.1 to build the project.
