Help How to disable Standalone GPS warning

Ever since I got the Gingerbread update (4.08), I've been having a problem when I turn on the GPS. Each time I enable GPS, I get the warning message:

Standalone GPS Services
By selecting "Standalone GPS Services", you are enabling access to all location information...

This didn't happen before with Froyo, and I can't seem to find a way to turn this off. I've seen the warning that gives a "Never warn again", and selected that, but it doesn't help with this particular message. This seems to happen whether I turn it on through a 3rd party widget (Widgetzoid) or through the phone's own settings.

Anyone have an idea why this happens, and whether there's a way to get rid of it?
