I can confirm this in hardy (version of nano: 2.0.7-1ubuntu1)
Steps to reproduce this:
$ cd ~
$ rm .nano-history
$ sudo nano
enter some text, then search for some text (^W) and add this text to the
search history (^P). Then close nano.
Now a .nano-history is created in the users home-dir:
$ ls -all .nano*
-rw------- 1 root root 6 2008-04-14 19:20 .nano_history
Starting without superuser-rights reproduces this bug
$ nano
Fehler beim Lesen von /home/markus/.nano_history: Permission denied
Drücken Sie die Eingabetaste, um mit dem Starten von nano fortzufahren.
