Running location-6.x-3.1 (http://drupal.org/project/location) and gmap-6.x-1.1 (http://drupal.org/project/gmap).

If:
1) the field "Location: Distance / Proximity" of an exposed filter of a view is set to the value "User's Latitude / Longitude (blank if unset)" and
2) no location is set in the registered user account,
then the view does: a) not cause the Distance input field to be removed/ ignored and b) not return any results/ rows.

This also happens with anonymous users, as their locations are unknown by definition. So, also they are confronted with empty views, because of this bug.

Furthermore:
I did add the "Content: Location (field_location)"-field as a (non-required) relationship and used that relationship for the filter.
I just found out that the filter does not need to be exposed for this bug to appear.
The bug appears with view styles Table, Calendar navigation and perhaps others.

Project: Views (for Drupal 7) » Location
Version: 6.x-2.11 » 6.x-3.x-dev

This seems to me like a bug in the location module.

Apparently, my previous post was too premature, as explained here: http://drupal.org/node/505596#comment-3498694

Title: Location distance field not removed, if registered user's location is not regsistered. » Distance field should be excluded in views (columns and exposed filter), when no user location is registered.
