Here is the code I’m using, but the {location} field is never displaying any data:

{exp:comment:entries weblog="{my_weblog}" limit="25" entry_id="{segment_3}"}

   <b>{name}</b>{if location} <i>({location})</i>{/if} says:

   <div class="entryBodyComment">{comment}</div>

   <div class="entryPosted">{comment_date format='%l, %F %j, '%y'}</div>

{/exp:comment:entries}

Thsi is of course inside a {exp:weblog:entries} tag.

I can verify that some geographic information has been added to the field for certain members, but it never displays.

Have you tried moving it outside the weblog:entries tag?  The comment:entries tag does not need to be inside it and I’m wondering if that’s causing any interference here.

Try moving the comment:entries tag outside of weblog:entries and see if it works.

what Arun S. said and also try removing the condition.
Perhaps your weblog has the same custom field of {location}?

Ahh, I didn’t notice the conditional.  That construction has caused me some problems in the past.  It works in certain circumstances but doesn’t in others.  I’m not sure what the determining factor is. 

You might also try this conditional:

{if location != ""}{location}{/if}

I didn’t test which of these did the trick, but I changed both, and they fixed the problem!

I’ll test some more when I’m clear of the launch threshold, and will report back.

Many thanks for helping me think outside the {brackets} !
