I ran into a ghost window leak in Nightly from 2015-12-29.

I'll upload the cc and gc logs to my people.

What are the URLs of the ghost windows?

I should've kept the about:memory report. There was a bunch of stuff: facebook, github, google maps. I had only one tab open at the time of the log and it was some simple page (an Apache index listing or something like that)

Ah, if it is just everything, then no need for specifics. Unfortunately the log file is so gigantic (1.8GB) it is going to be hard to figure out what is holding onto things. I assume you can't just reproduce this easily in a session that you haven't opened so many tabs in?
I have seen a geolocation issue causing ghost windows recently. That could be related to the Google Maps stuff, but not the github. So I'm not sure. Please reopen if you see this again.
