Tramp tries to turn history off altogether.  Search tramp.el for
`hist' and find this code:

  (tramp-message 9 "Waiting 30s for `set +o history'")
  (process-send-string
   nil (format "set +o history %s"      ;mustn't `>/dev/null' with AIX?
               tramp-rsh-end-of-line))
  (unless (tramp-wait-for-regexp
           p 30
           (format "\\(\\$\\|%s\\)" shell-prompt-pattern))
    (pop-to-buffer (buffer-name))
    (error "Couldn't `set +o history', see buffer `%s'"
           (buffer-name)))
  (erase-buffer)

I wonder why does it fail for you?  I think "set +o history" is a bash
specific command.  Please tell me what to do to turn history off in
bash.
