Okay, it seems to be the GNU Gnuzilla Privacy extension, if that's
disabled it causes the problem... With it enabled I have had other
problems though, before it would not let me switch from German Google to
English Google.

Have just tested that, and it seems to still stop me from switching to
English Google.

What a pain all this is...

This is why I like plain vanilla browsers, without add-ons which so
often cause little annoyances like this.
