Unlike earlier versions, FF27.0.1 won't accept the root of a drive as default download dir. How do I change that?

I usually save downloads to the root of F:\ and have that set in my options. Since version 27.0.1 came along, Firefox ignores my setting and defaults to MyDocuments\Downloads. Reverting to version 26 or earlier corrects the problem and my downloads go to F:\, but updating to 27.0.1 brings the problem back. A workaround is to create a subdirectory and save to there, but I want to save in the root like I always did before version 27.0.1.

How can I make the current Firefox save downloads in the root of a stipulated drive?
