This Bash-bashing made me curious, as I do not remember having issues with
loss of its history, ever.  And that without such tricks as using an ever
growing history file.  I just use "shopt -s histappend" and 4096 lines as
HISTFILESIZE.  Plus I close my Bashes orderly before shutting down.  Plus
I do not use Bash from Emacs, only in "real" terminals.  Eh, plus I rarely
use nested Bashes.

So given all that, is there a reproducer for this?
