Bash 1.14.7 doesn't understand either "set +o history" or the HISTIGNORE
environment variable. I think the best way to suppress bash's history stuff
for all versions is to set HISTFILE to /dev/null. Appended is a patch that
works for me on the system with the original problem (RH5.2). I also tried
it against RH6.1 and Mandrake6.1 with no problems. This command has the
nice side effect of not causing a fuss with other shells that might object
to "set +o history".
