Patch: make history saving/loading concurrent-safe

Please try this patch.

It makes the following changes:
* all history writes always append (not overwrite) history files
* they reload history if they detect that file length has changed since last
write
* they trim history file only when it grows 4 times longer thna MAXLINES
* they do this atomically by creating new file and renaming it to old.
