No, the original Geolocation implementation by Greg uses multiple calls to startUpdating(). This is required so that the options for each request can be passed to the provider. When client-based Geolocation was added, each call to startUpdating() adds the observer to the controller.

Note that this change fixes reentrant-error.html reentrant-success.html (see Bug 
39908) so my patch removes these from the mac skipped list.

maximum-age.html is still broken, due to more serious problems with the client-based implementation. Once this change lands, I'll update Bug 39908 to reflect this.
