Hi. Most of the patch is ok with me.

I think we don't want to remove resetting "history_size = INT_MAX;"
in the error case here (but see below).
Also, new style rules say that since the clause is multiple lines
it needs to be wrapped in {}.
It's kinda funny that explicitly setting the value to UINT_MAX (instead
of zero) is ok, but setting the value to anywhere between INT_MAX and
UINT_MAX-1 is an error because it's too big. :-)
That makes me think it'd be better to just bite the bullet and say
any value from INT_MAX and up means "unlimited".
They're effectively that anyway.
