Description Tomasz Kepczynski 2006-02-27 20:37:15 UTC 
Description of problem:
I was unable to login to my account. Investigation revealed ~/.history file to
be blamed as moving it out of the way to another location let me to use my
account. I saved a file (attached) and tried to load it with:
$ history -M history
and it coredumped (also attached)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
tcsh-6.14-1

How reproducible:
Always with provided history file.
  
Additional info:
What may be important here is that:
1. I use pl_PL.utf8 locale
2. history seems to keep a lot of crap from Midnight Commander
