(Get the code!)
If my experience is any indication, Epiphany might be a better context in which to reproduce this than Firefox. This bug bites me *frequently* in Epiphany. While I don't have a magic formula for reliably reproducing it, it tends happen within an hour or so of use. "Busy" pages with a lot of IFRAMEs seem especially likely to trigger it. A heavily customized Google home page is one such animal; cnn.com seems to be another.
While Epiphany is my preferred browser, I've tried reproducing this in Firefox--and I haven't had any luck so far.
Oh, and when I do close one of these rogue windows causing the browser to "crash", I don't get a stack. I get a program exit with a return code of 1.
And FWIW, I'm on x86_64.
I'd be happy to help someone familiar with the Mozilla code to chase this down; but without a stack, I'm not sure where to start.
