10.0, csh history merge broken?

[Alexander Yerenkow]

This definitely deserve a PR and a fix.
And it seems that is cause of my problem described in PR 185603 - we worked
in three hands under root (ssh then tmux) and somehow got broken history
file - noticed after few reboots.
As a side effect, if history file will be large enough - it will prevent
you from logging in :)
