Dear all, I am still experiencing these problems, so I have written a little helper to mitigate the effects. The attached ruby script takes a couple of history files (say, the most recent one and a couple of backups from recent days) as paths on the commandline. These are parsed and merged by removing duplicates. The result is arranged in ascending order of the times since epoch.
Perhaps this is of use to others as well.
