Comment (by raimue):

 Indeed, if libedit does not implement `append_history` that is really
 unfortunate. Looks like it was only [https://gnats.netbsd.org/cgi-bin
 /query-pr-single.pl?number=51518 recently added] to NetBSD, which would be
 where Apple borrowed their implementation, but it has also been patched
 since the initial import. It is unlikely that this will find its way into
 macOS, definitely not into older releases. Filing a

 Not sure how we want to continue with this, then. Do we want to roll our
 own code to manage the history file? I have doubts that this is worth
 importing the whole libedit source to our vendor libraries...
