zsh_history mangled on unstable
Often when I restart my machine, I get my .zsh_hostory file
truncated and this (garbage) left behind:

-rw-r--r-- 1 eric eric 3 Dec 4 15:31 .zsh_history.329
-rw-rw-r-- 1 eric eric 55281 Dec 5 23:22 .zsh_history
I am trying to fix it with toggling these setting but they do
not seem to be influencing the problem.
export HISTFILE=~/.zsh_history
export HISTSIZE=50000
export SAVEHIST=50000 # see if this helps
HISTFILESIZE=8000
zsh Version: 4.0.4-3
Any ideas?
