Sorry my being a retard/sclerotic, the issue is over.
Alas, it is not.
Here's how the History window looked on the 1st of May:

Here's how it looks now, on the 5th of June:

I didn't clear the History/Private Data.
It seems SeaMonkey runs out of some resources and therefore drops the
oldest history data.
Any suggestions?
It can't be that simple. I have about 50,000 URLs in my browser history,
some of them visited as long ago as January 8, 2012 (the last time I
cleared it). There must be something else going on.
See bug #660646 at <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=660646>.
I see that, but it wasn't the question as I understand it. Ilya was
saying his system /does/ clear older entries even when he does not do so
manually, and he doesn't want that. I replied that my own system /does
not/ clear older entries, so the hypothesis that SM always does so
cannot be true. There must be some difference between his system and
mine that accounts for my long history and his short one.
FWIW, I would love to have that capability back -- to be able to specify
that entries older than nnn days should be cleared. I miss it.
P.S. I double-checked and found that my system is retaining over 75,000
URLs in the history, and about:config specifies 104,858 as the maximum
number at places.history.expiration.transient_current_max_pages. Another
few months and it will have to start expiring older entries.
