Sigh ... let me guess ... libedit? How old? What was the last
combination that worked on this platform?
The only patch recently applied in this area is b0fd5c552, which I really
don't think would have any impact on exit-time saving behavior. What
seems substantially more likely is that your command history library
changed.
